The French phrase '3 jours' or 'trois jours' simply means '3 days', or 'three days', in English. So, 'It takes 3 days' in English is 'Il faut 3 jours' in French.

'Trois jours' or '3 jours' is pronounced 'twa zhour'.

The French term 'toujours', meaning 'always', is pronounced 'two-zhour', and in English the term '3 jours' is sometimes used - generally with humorous intent - as a play on words to indicate a sense of 'more than always'.

Some organizations, events, publications, and so on, use the term in their name or title to indicate that three days are somehow involved and so a sporting event, for example, lasting three days might be abbreviated to '(Les) 3 Jours', so you might see the term '3 Jours' used alone in that way.
