One French Word - Episode 4: Voilà
Today’s word is voilà, a flexible French word for pointing something out or handing something over. Depending on the moment, it can mean “here is,” “there you go,” or “that’s it.” 1
Say it in two clear beats: vwah-LAH. The French pronunciation is written /vwa.la/, with the “oi” sounding like “wah.” 2
Try these everyday examples:
- Voilà votre café. — Here is your coffee.
- Voilà le musée. — There’s the museum.
- Et voilà ! — There you go! / That’s it!
Use voilà when the thing you are showing, giving, or finishing has just arrived in the conversation. Then practise by saying the word aloud before you move on.
