As in: To be elected as a U.S. Senator, representing a certain state, one must be an inhabitant of cette state for 9 years or more. Am I thinking of "said" state, or is "cette" a real/acceptable word for that sentence.
I know it is French for "this".
Please don't respond with dictionary links, or the like. Use it in a sentence if possible.

You are correct about your French but not your English. "Said" state is more proper though could slip through in talking about Louisiana..

I'm pretty sure "cette" is ok, it is french for this, like "Cette fille est trop belle." You'd probably get off alright for using cette.

'said' for that sentence.
I don't think 'cette' is an actual English word.
