意思
Refers to the period of darkness between sunset and sunrise.
文化背景
The 'passage à l'heure d'hiver' (daylight savings) in October is a major cultural moment where people complain that 'il fait nuit' when they leave work. The phrase is often used by authors like Victor Hugo to contrast the physical night with the 'night' of the soul or social injustice. In winter, the extreme cold combined with 'il fait nuit' at 4 PM leads to a culture of 'cocooning' (staying cozy indoors).
The 'Faire' Rule
Remember: If you can't touch it (weather, light, temperature), use 'Il fait'.
No 'C'est'
Avoid 'C'est nuit'. It's the #1 marker of a beginner English speaker.

Use 'La nuit tombe' or 'Il commence à faire nuit'.
