How To Reassure Someone In French

This article explains how to reassure someone, if they have done something which caused them to say sorry or apologize to you.

So let’s start:

Firstly, we’ll give you the two most common phrases people use in France to reassure someone.

The first one is “n’est pas grave” (which means “It doesn’t matter”), and the second one is “ca ne fait rien” (which means “forget about it”).

Here are a few additional phrases someone may say to you or you may need to say to someone:

“Ne t’en fais pas” is a useful phrase, which means “don’t worry!”

Then there is “Il n’y a pas de probleme” which means “don’t worry about it”.

Or you could say “t’inquiete pas! C’est pas grave” which means “don’t worry about it! It doesn’t matter”.

Another question you could ask someone is “C’est quand ton anniversaire?” Which means “When is your birthday”.

When you’re having a conversation with someone, you will probably want to ask questions of other people. The easiest way to do this is to say “tell me about…” and then say whatever it is that you want to ask about.

To say “tell me” in French you would say “parlez-moi”.

Here’s a few example questions you may like to ask:

“Parlez-moi un peu de vous”, This means “Tell me a bit about yourself”.

“Parlez-moi de votre famille” is another question you may like to ask. This means “tell me about your family”.
