How to Say ‘And you, are you married now?’ in French

Et toi, tu es mariée maintenant ?

eh twah too eh mah-RYAY mehN-tuh-nawn

[eh twah too eh mah-RYAY mehN-tuh-nawn]

💬 Usage Tip: Et toi ? "And you?" turns any question back on the other person. Here it comes first, then the question follows.

🇫🇷 In France: Between old friends this is a normal catch-up question. With someone you barely know, asking about marriage directly can feel a bit nosy in France.
