French Phrase
C'est réglé ?
Meaning
Literally “Is it settled?” It is used to ask whether a matter, a reservation, a problem, or any arrangement has been taken care of. The tone can be casual or slightly urgent depending on context.
When to use
Use this phrase after you have asked someone to handle something – a booking, a payment, a technical issue – and you want confirmation that everything is in order. It works in both personal and professional settings, but it is informal; in very formal business emails you would write "Tout est réglé ?" or "Est‑ce que tout est en ordre ?".
✦Grammar Breakdown
C'estréglé?
C' (Ce + est)
The contraction "C'" combines the demonstrative pronoun "ce" (this/it) with the verb "être"; it is used before a vowel or mute h.
est (être)
"est" is the third‑person singular present of "être" (to be). Here it links the subject "ce" to the predicate adjective.
réglé (past participle)
"réglé" is the past participle of "régler" (to settle, to fix). In this construction it functions as an adjective meaning "settled, taken care of" and stays masculine because the subject "ce" is neuter.
Question intonation
Adding a question mark turns the statement into a yes‑no question; the intonation rises at the end.

✕Common Mistakes
C'est réglée ?
The past participle must stay masculine (réglé) because the subject "ce" is neuter; adding an "e" makes it incorrect.
C'est réglé.
Without the rising intonation or a question mark it becomes a statement (“It’s settled”). Add a question mark or raise your voice to ask.
C’est réglé ?
Using the apostrophe correctly is essential; writing "C’est" with a space before the apostrophe is a typo.

Cultural Tip
In French, "c'est réglé" is often used after a quick exchange – for example, when confirming a restaurant reservation, a repair, or a payment. It conveys a sense of efficiency and reassurance. Avoid using it in very formal written correspondence; instead opt for "tout est en ordre" or "la situation est réglée". Also note that the phrase stays masculine regardless of the gender of the thing being settled, because "ce" is neuter.
