How it's actually used

Confirms plans and agreements constantly in spoken French. Also used literally to mean something functions: "ça ne marche pas" is "it's not working."

Examples

Where it comes from

Literally "it walks."

Now actually use it out loud

Reading a definition isn't the same as saying it to someone. Lingo Kaiava is a voice tutor set to French — it uses ça marche the way locals do, corrects you in the moment, and never "fixes" the way real people actually talk into textbook French.
