rest

[hidden mist]

j'imagine que c'est parce que détendu veut dire relaxé et non reposé.

[surreal slate]

Being détendu means you are not tense. Nothing to do with resting indeed.

[midnight sierra]

Can the phrase also be write like this?
"Étre-vous reposés?"

And why the double "vous" in the question?

[modern rivet]

Le verbe qui est conjugué, c'est « se reposer », un verbe pronominal. Donc, le 1e vous est le sujet; et le 2e vous est le pronom tonique.

[slow mesa]

c’est pas tonique

it’s reflexive

[slow mesa]

you didn’t conjugate etre, and notice that the question is in the paste tense not the present tense

[hidden mist]

the correct way is

vous vous êtes reposé(s)? OR
vous êtes-vous reposé(s)?
