"En" is a personal pronoun that we use to replace part of a sentence. It really depends on the context, but for example, if I say to you: "Do you want some fruit?", you're not going to answer "yes, I want some fruit", since we've already said "some fruit", we know what we're talking about. So, you'll say: "Yes, I want some". The "en" will replace "some fruit".

"Veux" comes from the verb "to want". I "want" is cambodia whatsapp number data the first person singular of the verb "to want" and "to want" means to desire something, to want something. "Je veux des fruits" means "I want to eat fruit".

"There you go" is a term that is used to draw attention to something or someone. If, I don't know, my neighbor comes, I say: "Ah, there's my neighbor." You see, we draw attention to something or someone. "Here's my phone, it's on the table."

So, I really didn't know the origin of this expression because this expression, once again, it is used, we come across it a lot when French speakers express themselves, but I didn't know its origin. In fact, it dates from around 1750, this expression, it dates from the 18th century. It designates a profusion of goods, that is to say an excess of goods, objects. It was a period during which a certain category of the population had a lot of objects, a lot of food, a lot of wealth. It was available at will for them. Once again, we are just before the French Revolution, there are big inequalities, so it is obviously the very rich who had this excess of goods, a lot of food, objects, wealth. They had it at will. So you just have to want it, to want them, to have them. And there is an idea of ​​obtaining them without effort.
