Tips to remember “voilà”:
1. Relate “voilà” to its English equivalent “here is” or “there it is.” The “voi” in “voilà” sounds like “voi” in “voice,” which you use to point something out verbally, and “là” means “there.”
2. Visualize a magician saying “voilà” while revealing a magic trick, as it is commonly used in this context.
3. Practice using “voilà” in situations where you might reveal, present, or show something, reinforcing its meaning through repetition.

Explanations:
“Voilà” is a French word that combines “vois” (from “voir,” meaning “to see”) and “là” (meaning “there”). Literally translated as “see there,” it’s often used when presenting or showing something. It can be a declaration of a completed action, an introduction to something new, or a way to indicate the location of something.

Other words that mean the same thing:
– “Here is” or “there is” in English
– “Ecco” in Italian
– “He aquí” in Spanish
– “Aqui está” in Portuguese

Alternate meanings or slang:
In French, “voilà” can also serve as a filler word, somewhat like “um” or “so” in English, particularly in informal conversation. It might be used to wrap up a statement or to transition between thoughts.

Examples of sentences using “voilà”:
– “Voilà le café que vous avez commandé.” (“Here is the coffee you ordered.”)
– “Vous mettez le fromage dans l’omelette et voilà, c’est prêt!” (“You put the cheese in the omelette and there you have it, it’s ready!”)
– “J’ai trouvé mes clés ! Voilà !” (“I found my keys! There they are!”)
– “Tu cherches un stylo ? Voilà, tu peux utiliser celui-ci.” (“Are you looking for a pen? Here you go, you can use this one.”)
