What does La vie n'est pas simple mean?

In: French to English [Edit categories]

Answer:

life is not easy/ simple

The real saying is actually either "C'est la vie" or "C'est la vie n'est-ce pas".
The first means "That's life" or literally "That is the life" but literal translations are never truly accurate.
The second means "That's life, isn't it?" or again literally "That is the life, is it not."
