意思
Used to describe snowy weather.
文化背景
In Paris, even a light dusting of snow is a major event. People flock to Montmartre to see the Sacré-Cœur covered in white, but the metro often becomes very crowded. Snow is a fundamental part of Quebecois identity. There are dozens of specific terms for snow, and 'le déneigement' (snow removal) is a massive municipal operation. Snow is synonymous with the luxury ski industry and traditional mountain life. 'Il neige' is the best news a chalet owner can hear. In the Belgian Ardennes, snow is common in winter, providing a beautiful backdrop for the Christmas markets.
The 'Il' Rule
Always use 'Il' for weather. It's the most important rule for A1 learners.
No 'is'
Don't say 'Il est neige'. The verb 'neige' already includes the 'is' part of 'is snowing'.
