Ce n'est pas une bonne idée

It's not a good idea

Used to express disapproval of a suggestion.

🌍

문화적 배경

The French often start a disagreement with 'Oui, mais...' (Yes, but...) followed by 'Ce n'est pas une bonne idée'. This is a rhetorical dance to show they've heard you before they disagree. In Quebec, you might hear 'C'est pas une gosse d'idée' (slang) or simply the standard French version. The 'ne' is dropped even more frequently than in France. In French corporate culture, saying 'Ce n'est pas une bonne idée' is seen as being 'constructive' rather than 'negative'. It invites the other person to defend their logic.

The 'Ne' Drop

If you want to sound like a local, always say 'C'est pas' instead of 'Ce n'est pas'.
