Très bien ! : Good! Very good!
The following responses are polite enough for a new acquaintance, but general enough for a good friend, too: Très bien, merci. Very well, thank you. Je vais bien, merci.
"Tres bien" is more commonly used to praise an act ,a good quality but lesser for object appreciation , like you won't see a nice painting and comment ' tres bien' , but rather use it to praise a nice meal for example .
: comfortable, cozy, snug. b. : prosperous, well-to-do. 2. obsolete slang : good, fine.
adverb. jolly [adverb] very. Taste this – it's jolly good! most [adverb] very or extremely.
Using très bien in sentence building
The most basic usage is to modify a verb. For example, “Je chante très bien” (I sing very well) or “Vous cuisinez très bien” (You cook very well). In situations where the sentence has a direct object, “très bien” must come between the verb and the direct object.
It's going very, very well and you.
very good, very well.
If someone asks you how you're doing with Tu vas bien/vous allez bien (You're doing well), a great answer is Oui, je vais bien, et toi/vous ? (Yeah, I'm fine, and you?).
a gorgeous girl [example]
un beau brin de fille [ex.]
Très bien, merci. Very good, thank you.
French translation of 'excellent!'
⧫ parfait !
The usual response to merci is de rien (You're welcome – literally, It's nothing) or il n'y a pas de quoi. In a more formal context, you could say Je vous en prie or Je t'en prie.
Nuancing “Merci”
Watch out for “merci bien“. You'll hear it in France, but it may be frown upon in upper social classes. So I suggest your stick with “merci beaucoup“. As with saying hello in French, it's always more polite to follow your thank you with “Monsieur, Madame or Mademoiselle” or the name of the person.
You can also say “merci bien” instead of merci beaucoup - it means the same, but sounds slightly less formal.
1) “Mon ami” is just a cliché
It's kind of like saying Bonjour with a really heavy accent. Sure, it shows that the character is French, but it's not something you'd actually hear in France. Using “Mon ami” alone as “Hello my friend” will make you sound like you only know French clichés – and you deserve better!
Merci beaucoup
Beaucoup means “a lot,” so this French phrase roughly translates to “thanks very much” or “thanks a lot.”
c'est bien : that's good, fine, OK.
“Vive la France” translates as “hurray for France”, or sometimes as “long live France”, depending on the context. The French use many symbols and expressions to show their patriotism.
What is the proper response to bonjour? It's more than sufficient to simply say bonjour back in response to those who greet you, but if you want to go a step beyond, you can respond with comment allez-vous, which is the French equivalent of asking how it's going.
It literally means “good, thank you” - and can be used in formal and casual settings. So whether someone asked Comment allez-vous ? or Ça va ?, you can answer with bien, merci. And you can also add “très”(very) to the front to give it a little twist and say Très bien, merci (very well, thanks). Assez bien.
