Options:

Correct Answer:

Long live France

Explanation:

The correct answer is OPTION  2- "Long Live France".

The phrase "Vive la France" means "Long Live France".

Here's why:

  • "Vive" is the present tense, third person singular conjugation of the French verb "vivre," which means "to live."
  • "La" is the definite article in French, meaning "the."
  • "France" refers to the country.
  • When combined, the phrase literally translates to "May France live!" or "Long live France!".
