Talk:C'est la vie

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

i would like to know how to pronounce this phrase.

it's "say la v"

Not quite; "C'est" should actually be pronounced like the e sound in "fed" or "head", not like "ay". Bearcat 07:42, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

"c'est" sounds different depending on the next word, I think? C'est la vie sounds like "say" but ... uh... been a long time since I took french.

"C'est" could also be pronounced "sseh" the quick, short, slangy type of pronunciation, now it may just be me but i believe that the page needs a definition of this phrase...--149.68.7.90 15:36, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Anyone know if this phrase is used in france or just the US? 68.93.133.174 16:32, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
