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.

This is called l'inversion ^^

It's another way to ask questions, and is considered a lot more formal than your other options (using est-ce que or what you gave as answer)

[proven lintel]

C’est parce que c’est une question mais en soit les deux sont corrects

En plus déjà on dirait : prends-tu le bus pour venir ici

[worthy hare]

ahhh i see

thank you!!

It exists in other languages, so I will draw a parallel to English:

• Fact: You are doing well

Tu vas bien.
Question: Are you doing well?
Vas-tu bien ?
This example is basic and might not be the most natural in either language. I just wanted to show that it's there.

Mais est-ce on utilise l’inversion avec tu?

Je pensais que l’inversion donnait un air plutôt soutenu

[inland linden]

Tu penses que les gens de l'Académie ne diraient 'As-tu' à leurs enfants ?
