<p>French has the same use of "un" in "une fois" (once), but it is
not the equivalent of <i>"as soon as"</i>:</p>
<p> - Une fois [que tu es] prêt, appelle-moi! <i>"once [you are]
ready, call me!"</i></p>
<p>does not imply the same immediacy as <br>
</p>
<p> - Dès que tu es prêt, appelle-moi !<i> "as soon as you are
ready, call me!"</i></p>
