Mar 23, 2013 · Sep 5, 2008. #2. On ne dit jamais "c'est belle" ; la formulation est incorrecte (je ne saurais pas donner d'explication vu mon inculture grammaticale, mais j'en suis certain ). Pour dire que "quelque chose" est beau en utilisant cette forme, on dira uniquement "c'est beau". S.
Sep 4, 2011 · French. Sep 4, 2011. #4. To sound more natural, I'd say : - qu'est ce que t'es belle ! Youths easily say something like : 't'es trop belle' !

Aug 23, 2010 · Good point: to write Belle Époque in a WordReference post I have to either copy it from someone else's post or laboriously create the É in a word document and copy it over. Then, interpreting Wikipedia's rule, " isolated foreign words that do not yet have everyday use in non-specialised English ", I would say that you tend to find the term in specialist writing about French social history.
Sep 11, 2011 · England. English - England. Sep 11, 2011. #1. I have often wondered how the French distinguish between the belle-mère that is your stepmother and the one who is your mother-in-law. If you are an adult, and you had a stepmother and a mother-in-law, wouldn't this get confusing?
