Question married couple in French (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

when

'question' is the definition.

'married couple in french' is the wordplay.
'married couple' becomes 'WH' (abbreviations for wife and husband).
'in french' becomes 'en' ('in' in French).
'wh'+'en'='WHEN'

(Other definitions for when that I've seen before include "Say it when you''ve had enough" , "As soon as" , "At what time?" , "stop pouring the drink" , "Over what period?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
