What does est-ce que and qu'est-ce que mean? And also est-ce qu'ils.................

uhh i believe est-ce que used for a yes or no question. qu'est ce que is a question starting with "what" and qu'est ce qu'il is a question starting with "what" with the pronoun "he"

Yes, here are some examples that may help:

Est-ce-que vous allez a Vancouver? Are you going to Vancouver?

Qu'est-ce-que vous voulez manger? What do you want to eat?

Qu'est-ce qu'ils aiment faire? What would they like to do?

if you need help, go to google and
search up translation sites.
they work from french - english
and english - french.
good luck!

You can look that up on wordreference.com! I use that instead of my French dictionary...which I lost lmao.

"Est-ce que", "qu'est-ce que", and "est-ce qu'ils" are all ways of starting off questions.
"Est-ce que" signifies a yes or no question,
"Qu'est-ce que" is a question that starts with "What..."
and "Est-ce qu'ils" is a question that starts with "Do they..." and can be used for groups of all males or mixed gender groups. In that case, "ils" is the subject.
