When to use
Ask before starting a ride. Use this with drivers, ticket staff, or when checking that you are on the right route.
How it works
Treat this as a ready-made phrase first. After it feels familiar, compare the translation and pronunciation chunks to see which part carries the request, object, place, or politeness.
Nuance
Safe default for strangers unless the note says otherwise. French relies heavily on register; when in doubt with strangers, keep the polite form.
Watch out
Pronunciation hints are intentionally minimal for this language in the player; rely on native spelling and audio instead of over-reading romanization.
Useful detail
French learners should focus on when the phrase is natural, not only its literal translation. Category: Transport and taxi.
