意味
Politely inviting someone to enter a room or building.
文化的背景
The 'vouvoiement' is a sign of respect, not necessarily distance. Using 'Entrez, s'il vous plaît' with a neighbor you've known for years is common and polite. In Quebec, the 'tutoiement' (using 'tu') is more common than in France. You might hear 'Entre, s'il te plaît' more quickly in professional settings, though 'vous' remains the safe default for strangers. Belgian French is very similar to Metropolitan French in its use of this phrase, but you might hear 'S'il vous plaît' used at the end of many sentences as a general politeness marker, even more frequently than in Paris. In many West African countries, hospitality is deeply ritualized. 'Entrez, s'il vous plaît' is often followed by an immediate offer of water or tea as part of the welcoming process.
The Comma Rule
Always put a comma before 's'il vous plaît' in writing. It makes your French look much more professional.
The 'Vous' Trap
If you start with 'Entrez', you MUST finish with 's'il vous plaît'. Never say 'Entrez s'il te plaît'—it's a major grammar clash!

Add 'Donc' for Warmth
If you want to sound extra welcoming, say 'Entrez donc !'. It sounds very native and friendly.

よくある質問
10 問You can, but it sounds like a command. It's okay for a teacher to a student, but in most social situations, it sounds a bit rude.
'Entrez-donc' is warmer and more encouraging. It's like saying 'Do come in!' instead of just 'Come in'.
It's both! You use it for a group of people OR for one person you are addressing formally (vouvoiement).
Since you 'tutoie' your pets, you would say 'Entre !'.
It represents an 's' that used to be there in Old French (plaist). It's a linguistic fossil!
No, for a car you would say 'Montez' (Get in/Climb in). 'Entrez' is for buildings and rooms.
The correct spelling has the accent: 'plaît'. However, many French people omit it in casual texts.
You can still say 'Entrez, s'il vous plaît' to give them permission to cross the threshold.
It's rare. In an email, you'd usually say 'Je vous invite à venir dans mon bureau'.
The polite opposite would be 'Sortez, s'il vous plaît' (Please leave), though that is rarely 'polite' in practice!
