C'est la vie means that's life. Curiously, more English people use it than we french do!

It's French, written "C'est la vie" and means "That's life."

The correct spelling is "C'est la vie", and it means, literally, "That is the life," or, more colloquially, "That's life," or even the slightly older, "Such is life."

It is: c’est la vie
(that is life)
that’s life, that’s the way the cookie crumbles

It means the same as the English expression, 'that's life.' Literally: ' it is the life.'

"C'est la vie!" is French for "Such is life."
