意思
An informal way to ask for the time or date of an event.
文化背景
In France, 'C'est quand ?' is often followed by a discussion about food. If an event is at 8 PM, expect people to arrive at 8:15 PM (the 'quart d'heure de politesse'). In Quebec, you might hear 'C'est quand que...' more frequently in casual speech than in France, often with a slightly different melodic intonation. Swiss French speakers are known for being more punctual. If you ask 'C'est quand ?' and they say 14:00, they mean exactly 14:00.
The 'Déjà' Trick
Add 'déjà' at the end ('C'est quand déjà ?') to sound like a pro when you've forgotten a date someone already told you.
Watch the 'D'
Never pronounce the 'd' at the end of 'quand' unless you are doing a liaison. It's a common beginner mistake.
