The French verb valoir is commonly used to express worth or value, much like "to be worth" in English. It's often seen in phrases like "Ça vaut le coup" (It's worth it/It's worth the effort). You might also encounter it when discussing prices, as in "Combien ça vaut ?" (How much is it worth?). Beyond monetary value, valoir can also refer to the merit or importance of something, such as in "Son avis vaut de l'or" (His opinion is worth gold). It's a versatile verb that you'll hear frequently in everyday French conversation.

The correct order forms the common expression 'Cela ne vaut pas la peine,' meaning 'It's not worth it.' The negative structure 'ne...pas' surrounds the verb 'vaut.'
This is a well-known French idiom meaning 'Prevention is better than cure.' The structure 'mieux vaut...' is key.
The past participle 'valu' is used with the auxiliary 'avoir' to form the passé composé. The indirect object pronoun 'lui' comes before the auxiliary verb.
