    Phrase in French is sentence in English, and as far as I know it also means phrase. I will try to ask to a French teacher. Sentence in French means condamnation. The difference however exists in Portuguese: Sentença & Frase, like in English.

    Context is important. Please provide enough for us to be able to deal effectively with your question.
    Your thread title should include all or part of the word/phrase being discussed.
