What It Means

What's the WiFi password? is your ticket to the digital world. It is a direct question. You use it to ask for the security key of a wireless network. It is one of the most common phrases in modern English. Everyone understands it instantly.

How To Use It

You can say this phrase exactly as it is. It is simple and effective. If you want to be polite, add Excuse me at the start. You can also add please at the end. For example: Excuse me, what's the WiFi password, please? This makes you sound like a great guest.

When To Use It

Use it whenever you enter a new place. Use it at a friend's house. Use it at a coffee shop or a hotel. You can even use it at a business meeting. It is perfect for when your data is low. It is also great when the signal is weak.

When NOT To Use It

Do not ask this immediately at a funeral. That might seem a bit rude. Avoid asking it during a very serious romantic moment. Your partner wants your attention, not your Instagram feed. Also, do not ask a stranger on the street. They likely do not have a portable hotspot for you.

Cultural Background

Common Variations

You might hear Do you have WiFi? first. Some people ask Is there a guest network? In very casual settings, friends might just say What's the code? If you are at a fancy hotel, you might ask How do I get online? All of these lead to the same result: internet access!
