agree  Andrei Albu: D'accord avec "A fost odata ca niciodata". Mais ca suffit, le reste depends du contexte.

  -> Merci a vous. Seulement je ne crois pas qu'il soit dependent d'un "contexte". C'est LE debut classique d'un conte de fee (n'importe lequel). Apres, l'ecrivain peut choisir de prendre juste un bout, le tout ou meme d'en rajouter. Je me trompe?
agree  Elvira Stoianov: also agree with Andrei, the asker requested the typical form
