why, US hwaI❢ Why translates as pourquoi in French, but see B, C below for exceptions. As with other words such as où, quand, comment etc, questions are formed by inserting est-ce que after the question word: why did you go? = pourquoi est-ce que tu y es allé? or by inverting the subject and verb after the question word, which is slightly more formal: pourquoi y es-tu allé? In spoken French the question word can be put at the end: tu y es allé pourquoi? why occurs with certain reporting verbs such as ask, explain, know, think and wonder. For translations, see these entries.A adv1 ( in questions) pourquoi ; why do you ask? pourquoi est-ce que tu me poses la question?, pourquoi me poses-tu la question? ; why didn't she tell us? pourquoi est-ce qu'elle ne nous l'a pas dit?, pourquoi ne nous l'a-t-elle pas dit? ; why risk everything? pourquoi tout risquer? ; why bother? pourquoi se tracasser? ; ‘I'm annoyed’-‘why is that?’ ‘je suis vexé’-‘pourquoi?’ ; why all the fuss? pourquoi tout ce remue-ménage? ; why the delay? pourquoi ce retard? ; why me? pourquoi moi? ; oh no, why me? oh non, pourquoi est-ce que ça me tombe dessus? ; why not somebody else? pourquoi pas quelqu'un d'autre? ; ‘it's not possible’-‘why not?’ ‘ce n'est pas possible’-‘pourquoi pas?’ ; ‘would you be interested?’-‘why not?’ ‘ça t'intéresserait?’-‘pourquoi pas?’ ; ‘can I apply?’-‘I don't see why not’ ‘est-ce que je peux m'inscrire?’-‘je ne vois pas pourquoi tu ne pourrais pas’ ;2 ( when making suggestions) pourquoi ; why don't you apply for the job? pourquoi est-ce que tu ne poses pas ta candidature? ; why don't we go away for the weekend? pourquoi ne pas partir quelque part pour le week-end? ; why don't I invite them for dinner? et si je les invitais à manger? ; why not sell the car? pourquoi ne pas vendre la voiture? ; why not send off now for our brochure? pourquoi ne pas demander dès maintenant notre brochure? ; why not a mix of traditional and modern? pourquoi pas un mélange de classique et de moderne? ;3 (expressing irritation, defiance) pourquoi ; why don't they mind their own business? pourquoi est-ce qu'ils ne s'occupent pas de leurs affaires? ; why can't you be quiet? tu ne peux pas te taire deux minutes? ; why do I bother? à quoi ça sert que je me donne du mal? ; why should they get all the praise? pourquoi est-ce que c'est eux qui auraient tous les compliments? ; ‘tell them’-‘why should I?’ ‘dis- leur’-‘et pourquoi est-ce que je devrais le faire?’ ;4 ( also whyever) ( expressing surprise) whyever not?
