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.

Also after i guess right

foggy lichen
#

as in, how do you say "just say it"?

final portal
#

And also pour préciser, i mean when theres an object involved

A construction like "mange-les"

why don't you give it a try first?

#

Juste dis-le

#

Mange-les vite

foggy lichen
#

the trouble here is with "juste"

#

mange-les vite is a-okay

#

juste sometimes works the way that "just" does in English, but not really here

#

(maybe some French speakers would use it, but I think most would consider it an anglicism in this sort of case)

#

I'd use a different adverb: "simplement"
and I'd probably alter it with "tout"

#

dis-le (tout) simplement

#

or, even better, I'd probably completely change things around

#

"tu n'as qu'à le dire" → all you have to do is say it!
