意思
Used to express agreement or affirmation.
文化背景
The 'French nod' is a subtle, quick upward or downward movement of the chin that often accompanies 'oui'. In Quebec, 'oui' is often pronounced with a very sharp, almost 'wé' sound in casual speech, distinct from the Parisian 'oui'. In many African French-speaking countries, 'oui' is used frequently as a sign of respect and active listening during long stories.
Politeness counts
Always try to add 'merci' or a title after 'oui' to sound more native.
The 'Si' Trap
Don't forget 'si' for negative questions; it's the most common A1/A2 mistake.
