How to Say “My Night Was Good” in French

By •
ma nuit a été bonne
The English phrase "my night was good" is translated into French as ma nuit a été bonne.
This phrase is a statement used to say that you slept well or had a pleasant night. However, in French, it is often more natural to say J'ai bien dormi (I slept well) when responding to a question about your sleep.

What does it mean word for word?

The phrase is composed of ma (my), nuit (night), a été (has been) and bonne (good).

How does it change in a sentence?

The phrase ma nuit a été bonne uses the passé composé to describe a completed event.

Did you know?

  • If you were to use the word été as a noun instead of a verb, you would be talking about the 'summer' season.
  • The word été shares a root with the English word 'state', as both come from the Latin word for 'standing'.
