Ça va comment

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.

Yeah "ça va comment ?" is not generally something natives say.
Usually you can put "comment" at the end of a sentence, but "comment ça va ?" is basically a fixed idiom. It's not a spontaneous sentence that happens to contain "comment".

I see, appreciate it

[wraith sentinel]

"spontaneous" isn't the right word. More like, it's not a sentence that is dynamically built on the fly to convey something the speaker is thinking, it's more of an automatic and unchanging idiom.

[candid bronze]

so for anything other than "Ça va" you can put interrogative words at the end, right

like "Tu cherches qui?"

[wraith sentinel]

Yes, correct

[candid bronze]

Got it
