How to Say “Wanna Date?” in French

By •
tu veux sortir avec moi ?
The English phrase "wanna date?" can be translated into French as tu veux sortir avec moi ?
This phrase is used as an informal invitation to go on a romantic date with someone.

What does it mean word for word?

The phrase tu veux sortir avec moi ? literally translates to "do you want to go out with me?"

Which one should you use?

The verb sortir (to go out) is used here to imply a social or romantic outing, whereas avoir un rendez-vous can sound more formal or business-like.

Is there a formal and an informal way to say it?

Tu veux sortir avec moi ? is an informal way to ask someone out and is suitable for people of a similar age or social standing. For a more polite or formal approach, you can use Voulez-vous sortir avec moi? or the very polite Seriez-vous disponible pour un rendez-vous? In casual settings, you might also use the informal phrase Ça te dit de passer du temps ensemble? to ask if someone feels like spending time together.

How does it change in a sentence?

The phrase uses the informal subject pronoun tu rather than the formal vous, which is appropriate for a romantic or social context between peers.

Did you know?

  • The word avec actually contains a tiny piece of 'this' inside it, because it was originally formed from the Latin words for 'near' and 'this'.
