B2 Expression رسمی

Pour ma part

For my part; Personally

معنی

Used to introduce one's own opinion.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

In French intellectual culture, 'Pour ma part' is a way to respect the 'Cartesian' logic of individual thought. It signals that you have processed information and are now offering your unique deduction. In Quebec, the phrase is used similarly, but you might also hear 'De mon côté' more frequently in casual business settings to mean the same thing. In countries like Senegal or Ivory Coast, formal French is often very structured. 'Pour ma part' is frequently used in speeches and formal letters to show respect and clarity of position. Belgian French uses 'Pour ma part' just like in France, often in the context of the famous Belgian 'compromis'—stating one's position before finding a middle ground.

🎯

The Comma Rule

Always put a comma after 'Pour ma part' when it starts a sentence. It gives the listener a moment to prepare for your opinion.

⚠️

Gender Trap

Never say 'Pour mon part'. Even if you are the most masculine man in the world, the 'part' is feminine!
