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.

Most of the times yes

#

But it should be noted that you cannot always hope for a one-to-one translation

#

For example, if you want to emphasis a yes or no answer, English will add ‘why’ or ‘but’ :
‘Will you come later? Why of course I will / But of course I will!’

French adds « mais (but) » or « oh que (oh that/which) » :
« Est-ce que tu viendras plus tard ? Mais oui je viendrai / Oh que oui je viendrai ! »

So what about "I want to eat but I'm full"

#

The same "mais"?

What are these [au, aux, de, à, au, etc] called? Where can I learn their use

Btw if you have a new question, you can ask in the main channel so that people can see it

Since replying here won't push your thread up
