Questions & Answers about Où sont les toilettes ?
Why does the French sentence use "sont les toilettes" when the English translation is singular ("is the restroom")?
Since the current lesson is about "à" and its contractions, how would I say "to the restroom"?
What is the little mark over the "u" in "Où"?
That is a grave accent. It does not change how the word is pronounced, but it does change the meaning. With the accent, où means "where". Without it, ou means "or". The accent helps you tell them apart in writing.
Do I pronounce the "s" at the end of "les" or "toilettes"?
