GENERAL INFO

Ou means "or." It is a coordinating conjunction used to connect alternatives or choices.

USAGE

You use ou to present options, similar to "or" in English. For example, "Voulez-vous du café ou du thé ?" (Do you want coffee or tea?). It can link words, phrases, or clauses.

TRAPS

Be careful not to confuse ou (or) with "où" (where), which has a grave accent. The accent changes the meaning.
