Questions & Answers about Remplissez cette fiche, s'il vous plaît.

Why does the verb end in -issez instead of just -ez?

The verb is remplir (to fill). It belongs to the regular -ir group of verbs (like choisir or finir), which add an -iss- in their plural forms before the ending. Since this is a formal command addressed to vous, it becomes remplissez.

Could I use formulaire instead of fiche for the word 'form'?

Yes, both words are very common. A fiche is usually a shorter, simpler card or single-page record (like an index card or a quick sign-up sheet), while a formulaire tends to be a longer, more official document with many fields to fill out.

How would I change this sentence if I were talking to a close friend?

You would need to use the informal tu form. The verb changes to remplis and the polite phrase at the end must also match, giving you: Remplis cette fiche, s'il te plaît.
