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.

They can often be used synonymously, but avoir envie carries a sense of desire while vouloir carries a sense of will and intention

[winter minnow]

They mean the same thing. I would say that Vouloir is slightly stronger.

Citrons said it better.

[sturdy python]

But you also introduce an important nuance. Je veux un café is stronger than j'ai envie d'un café

[rugged orchid]

so would j'ai envie d'un café be like you want coffee but its like just a general sense of wanting

while je veux un café is like you want it and you're going to make it?

or get it ig

[sturdy python]

Kinda, yeah

[rugged orchid]

ok i see

thank you!

[polar kestrel]

It's somewhat like "feel like" vs just "want"
