How do you say “everything happens for a reason” in french?

Question

Natalie Goodwin · Accepted Answer

It’s idiomatic, it does not really have a translation. But I would say:Rien n’arrive pour rien (Nothing happens for nothing), which means approximately the same thing.

Natalie Goodwin · Answer

I rather like the response ‘Rien n’arrive par hasard’ as idiomatic. However, I wouldn’t actually say that in any of the languages I speak.I don’t think it is true that everything happens for a reason.That is just wishful thinking.

Il y a une raison à tout tout a une raison d’êtreRien n’arrive par hasard

Natalie Goodwin · Answer

Well, probably the best way to convey this message in French would be “C’est la vie.” It means “That’s life.” and I think it conveys the message that you want.However, if you want a more exact translation then it would be “Tout ce qu’il passe a un raison.”

Natalie Goodwin · Answer

Not sure this exists in French (cultural difference). But “c’est la vie” might be appropriate.

Natalie Goodwin · Answer

«Il y a une raison pour toute chose» Just simple like that!

Natalie Goodwin · Answer

I would try this way: tout arrive à cause d’une raison
