The Magic Phrase: “Comment se sont passées tes vacances?”

The most natural way to ask about someone’s holiday in French is: “Comment se sont passées tes vacances?” (for friends) or “vos vacances” (for formal situations). Literally meaning “How did your holidays pass?”, it’s the equivalent of our “How was your trip?” Pro tip: French speakers often shorten this to just “Tes vacances, c’était bien?” (“Your holiday, was it good?”).
