How do you say on the table in French?

There are a few ways to say "on the table" in French, depending on the context:

Formal:

* Sur la table: This is the most common and literal translation.

Informal:

* À table: This means "at the table" and is more commonly used when referring to eating or sitting at the table.

* Dans la table: This is less common and means "in the table." You might use this if you are talking about something being inside the table, like a drawer.

The best way to choose the right phrase is to consider the specific situation. For example:

* "The book is on the table" would be "Le livre est sur la table."

* "Let's eat, everyone at the table!" would be "On mange, tout le monde à table!"

Remember that French is a nuanced language, so pay attention to the context and choose the phrase that fits the situation best.
