How to ask the Names of other People
If you want to ask the name of someone else, then there are two possibilities:
- the informal way
- the formal way.
1. If you want to know the name of someone in an informal way, then this is what you’d say:
Comment tu t’appelles?
What is your name?
Tu t’appelles comment?
What is your name?
2. If you want to know the name of someone in a formal way then this is what you’d say:
Comment vous vous appelez?
What is your name?
Vous vous appelez comment?
What is your name?
The informal way uses the subject pronoun “tu” whereas the formal way uses the subject pronoun “vous”.
Please read the lesson on tu versus vous, if you want a more in-depth explanation.
