زمینه فرهنگی
The phrase reflects the French emphasis on intellectual precision and the 'esprit critique.' In French education, there is often a strong distinction between 'juste' (correct) and 'faux' (incorrect), making this a very common classroom expression. Interestingly, the French also use it playfully in social debates to signal they disagree with your logic.
The BAGS Rule
Remember the BAGS rule: Beauty, Age, Goodness, and Size adjectives usually go BEFORE the noun. 'Mauvaise' falls under Goodness!
Don't be too blunt
In a professional meeting, saying 'C'est une mauvaise réponse' can sound aggressive. Try 'Je ne suis pas d'accord' instead.

What It Means
Une mauvaise réponse is simply how you say "a bad answer" or "a wrong answer." You use it when someone gets a fact or a question incorrect. It can also describe a reply that is rude, mean, or unhelpful. Essentially, it covers anything from a math error to a social snub. Think of it as the direct opposite of a "good" or "correct" answer. It is a basic but essential phrase for any beginner in French.
How To Use It
In French, you place the adjective mauvaise right before the noun réponse. Most adjectives go after nouns, but mauvais is a special exception to the rule. Make sure to use the feminine form mauvaise to match the feminine noun réponse. You will mostly use it with the verb être, like c'est.... For example, C'est une mauvaise réponse means "That is a wrong answer." You can also add très to say it is a "very" bad answer.
When To Use It
Use it during a fun trivia night when a friend misses a question. It is perfect for a classroom setting when you are checking homework. You can use it when someone gives a very unhelpful or lazy excuse. It also works when someone makes a bad joke that totally fails. If you are playing a board game, you will say this a lot. It is a neutral phrase that fits almost any everyday situation.
When NOT To Use It
Don't use it if the answer is technically correct but just short. Avoid it in very delicate professional situations where you should be softer. In those cases, try saying Ce n'est pas tout à fait ça. Using it too bluntly with a stranger might sound a bit rude. It is better to use it with people you know fairly well. Don't confuse it with mauvais répondant, which is about credit scores!
Cultural Background
French culture and the school system place a high value on "la justesse." This means being precise and correct is very important in French life. In schools, hearing mauvaise réponse is a standard part of the day. However, in cafes and bars, French people love a good, long debate. They might say mauvaise réponse just to provoke a fun, friendly argument. It is part of the "esprit critique" or critical thinking they value.
Common Variations
Une réponse fausse is used specifically for factual or logical errors. Une réponse bidon is a great slang term for a fake or "trash" answer. Une réponse à côté means the person completely missed the point. Une réponse cinglante describes a very sharp, biting, or witty comeback. Une bonne réponse is, of course, the positive version you want to hear! La réponse D is a funny meme reference to game shows.
