What does the following sentence mean?:

"Huit hommes habitent en bas."
Does it mean, "Eight men live... low?.."?
I'm not sure about the "en bas" part. It doesn't really make sense with the rest of the sentence.

* men live downstairs.

Sra (aka Mme)

oh! That makes sense. Merci

The sentence "Huit hommes habitent en bas" is in French. It translates to "Eight men live downstairs" in English.

To understand the sentence, it helps to break it down:

- "Huit" means "eight" in English, referring to the number of men.
- "Hommes" means "men" in English, identifying the gender of the individuals.
- "Habitent" is the third-person plural form of the verb "habiter," which means "to live" in English. It indicates that the men are the ones who live.
- "En bas" translates to "downstairs" or "below" in English. It specifies the location where the men live.

So, the sentence means that there are eight men who live downstairs or below, indicating a specific location for their residence.
