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.

Btw asking because my french teacher used to tell my class to say “Je suis excité” when we are asked “Commet ça va" (idk if I spelt the commet part right)

So, both terms can work as a translation for ‘I am excited’ but because « excité » carries a sexual connotation, beginners are taught to avoid it because of the double meaning

frank nova
#

so if someone were to sau "Je suis excité" by itself

#

would it be considered to be a bad thing to say?

#

or would it be fine to say it like that

Without any context, it could be mistaken

#

So synonyms like « être ravi, avoir hâte de, être impatient » are better in the sense that there won’t be a double meaning
