If I wanted to say "my family comes first", would it be right to say "Ma Famille passe avant tout?" or "Ma Famillie vient avant tout?" The verbs throw me off.
It would be "vient", although I think you're trying to translate too literally. I'd maybe translate with something like "Le plus important, c'est ma famille" or "La priorité, c'est ma famille". But if you want to use "venir", you could say "Ma famille vient en priorité".
Looking at my previous response above, it occurs to me that it would probably be better (and less ambiguous) to say "Ma famille avant toute chose".
thanks a lot!
