R.S.V.P Means >>

Okay I have been asked many times…
“What do you mean by RSVP?”
I did my homework and found out this =)
From French, répondez (“‘answer’”) s’il vous plaît (“‘please’”).
To respond to an invitation, usually to indicate that one will be
coming to the corresponding event.
And I have made a mistake,”Generally one rsvps to invitations
and rsvps for events, as in the example sentences provided.
A very common mistake is to use the wording “Please RSVP”, which is
redundant since SVP stands for “please”.
An RSVP regrets only means that the sender will assume the invited
people will come unless they reply.”
Alright, a lesson to be learnt, and I hope
you learn something too if you do not already know.
Please reply once you get the card =)
