Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

c’est vs il est

You can use il est/ils sont when it's only followed by a noun indicating a job, a title, a nationality, etc. acting like an adjective.
But we have a noun combined with an adjective here so you can't use il est/ils sont, you can only use c'est/ce sont, followed by the indefinite article.
