"Je pense" means I think, and "donc" means therefore (some people say this in french like some Americans say the word "like". ie, "Umm, it was, like, really fun"). "Je suis" means I am.
So, the literal translationis "I think, therefore, I am."
Cogito ergo sumor translate to the English «Je pense donc je suis » by Descarte
The sentence 'Je pense donc je suis' means I think therefore I am. In the word-by-word translation, the personal pronoun 'je' means 'I'. The verb 'pense' means '[I] am thinking, do think, think'. The conjunction 'donc' means 'therefore'. The verb 'suis' means '[I] am'.
I think, therefore I am (Latin: Cogito ergo sum; French: Je pense, donc je suis).
The English meaning of 'Je pense' is I think. In the word-by-word translation, the personal pronoun 'je' means 'I'. And the verb 'pense' means '[he/she/it] thinks'.
therefore is 'donc' in French.
The French phrase "Je ne pense pas donc je ne suis pas" translates to "I do not think, therefore I am not" in English. This is a play on the famous philosophical statement by René Descartes, "Cogito, ergo sum" which means "I think, therefore I am." The French phrase negates the original statement, suggesting that without thought, one does not exist.
Cogito ergo sum "Je pense donc je suis" is a famous quote of René Descartes. It means "I think, therefore I am"
Renee Descartes was an important French mathematician, perhaps best known as the inventor of the Cartesian coordinate system, and for his famous statement "Je pense donc je suis" which in translation means, I think therefore I am.
You are using an altered version of a famous statement by the French mathematician Rene Descartes, who said I think therefore I am (or in the original French, je pense donc je suis). ........or in the original Latin (which he used) "cogito ergo sum".
Donc in French can be an adverb or conjunction. As a conjunction, it means therefore or thus. As an adverb, it means consequently.
"And you then?" literally and "And what about you?" loosely are English equivalents of the French phrase Et toi donc? The pronunciation will be "ey twa donk" in French.
