How to say is in french?

"Is" in French can be translated in a few different ways, depending on the context:

For the verb "to be" in the present tense:

* est (for the third person singular, meaning "he/she/it is")

* suis (for the first person singular, meaning "I am")

* es (for the second person singular, meaning "you are" [formal or informal])

* sommes (for the first person plural, meaning "we are")

* êtes (for the second person plural, meaning "you are" [formal or informal] or the third person plural, meaning "they are")

For a question, you can use:

* est-ce que (before the verb)

* est-il (for the third person singular, meaning "is he?")

* est-elle (for the third person singular, meaning "is she?")

* est-ce (before a noun or pronoun, meaning "is it?")

Examples:

* Elle est belle. (She is beautiful.)

* Je suis fatigué. (I am tired.)

* Est-ce que tu es prêt? (Are you ready?)

* Est-il malade? (Is he sick?)

* Est-ce un chat? (Is it a cat?)

Remember that the conjugation of the verb "être" (to be) changes depending on the subject pronoun and tense.
