  That makes sense. I always took it as ce is a more general “it” while il refers more to people or places, but I’m sure that doesn’t always hold true. And apparently ce is only used as a subject with être for the most part. I’m too analytical to just understand without digging in lol

    french is such a headache, but, then again, so is english. it’s just that english is more forgiving when you mess up.

      I want to venture into some of the french speaking parts of lemmy, but I’m scared and it’s been waaaay too long lmao. And I definitely wish I could just “get” it like I get english (for the most part), but idk the hopes of that for a second language. Probably have to move to France lol

      Like even the way native speakers type and talk is nowhere near “proper” most of the time, but it’s the language. And I wish I could do that in french, ya know? Hey, maybe Quebec will do!

      Aaand I upset the native french speaker even more now.
