C'est qui ?

Who is it?

An informal way to ask for someone's identity.

🌍

문화적 배경

In France, 'C'est qui ?' is the standard for all ages in casual settings. However, children are often taught to say 'Qui est-ce ?' to sound more 'polite' to adults. In Quebec, you might hear 'C'est qui, lui ?' or 'C'est qui, elle ?' with a very strong emphasis on the pronoun. The 'qui' is sometimes pronounced very sharply. In texting (SMS), this is often shortened to 'C ki ?' to save time. This is very informal 'text-speak'.

Rising Pitch

Make sure your voice goes up at the end, or it sounds like a statement.

⚠️

Not for Objects

Never use this for a ringing phone or a mysterious box. Use 'C'est quoi ?' for those.

Not among friends, but it can be blunt. To be softer, use 'Qui est-ce ?'.

Yes! In casual French, 'C'est qui ?' is used for both singular and plural.

Usually with 'C'est...' followed by a name. Example: 'C'est Marie.'

They are identical in meaning. 'Qui c'est ?' is just a slightly different word order used in speech.
