意味
A situation is considered successful if the final outcome is good, despite initial problems.
文化的背景
The French often use this phrase to 'close' a debate or a period of complaining. It acts as a polite signal that we can stop talking about the problems now. In Quebec, you might also hear 'Ça finit bien' or 'C'est une belle fin,' but the classic proverb remains the gold standard for formal relief. In Francophone West Africa, proverbs are highly valued. This phrase is often used in community resolutions to show that harmony has been restored. Belgian French speakers use this identically to the French, often after a period of 'nonante' (ninety) minutes of stress during a football match!
The 'Bien' Sandwich
Remember that the phrase starts and ends with 'bien'. It's a perfect symmetry!
Don't use 'Bon'
Even though 'good' is 'bon', in this specific proverb, 'bien' is the only word allowed. 'Tout est bon' sounds like you are talking about food.

4 問Yes, it is grammatically correct and means 'Everything ends well,' but it lacks the 'proverbial' punch of the full phrase.
It is neutral. You can use it with your boss or your grandmother.
'Qui' is the subject of the verb 'finit'. In French, when the relative pronoun is the subject, we use 'qui'.
