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.

The translation of "mother-in-law" is "belle-mère" but im not sure how appropriate it would be to address someone as that

Or if its normal to refer to them as such before you're married to your girlfriend

You can just… ask

« Bonjour, comment est-ce que je vous appellerais ? Je m’inquiète de ne pas savoir comment, puisque vous êtes la mère de ma copine. Est-ce que je vous appelle « Maman » ou autre chose ? »

Huh

if you call your mother in law "Maman" she's going to laugh at you lmao
