votes
The French word "votes" means "votes" in English, referring to choices or decisions expressed in an election or meeting.
In a sentence
Les votes des citoyens sont comptés après les élections.
The votes of the citizens are counted after the elections.
Here, 'votes' is a noun referring to the ballots submitted by citizens during elections.
Je votes à chaque élection pour choisir le meilleur candidat.
I vote in every election to choose the best candidate.
Here, 'votes' is incorrectly conjugated for the first person singular form 'je', which should be 'vote'.
Les décisions sont prises à main levée, sans avoir besoin de votes secrets.
Decisions are made by a show of hands, without requiring secret votes.
In this case, 'votes' again acts as a noun, representing the expression of choice or opinion.
