The French that is spoken in France, like received pronunciation in the UK, is actually relatively new. The French that is spoken in Québec is far closer to the French of pre-Revolutionary France. Because it has been relatively isolated from France, newer versions of French could not be imposed from Paris. There are certain indigenous innovations, of course. There are some Anglicisms that entered from contact with British Canada and words/expressions from the First Peoples as well as natural linguistic evolution. However, unlike in France Québécois society has been allowed to develop organically and without nearly as much upheaval.

[@benvad9010]

Bunnyroo7 we’re loyalist to the Ancien Régime and we like the way we are. France is fucked as is the rest of Europe and is on its way to a Magreb shithole reserve.

[@300books]

In being isolated from France, Quebec French has slowly morphed into something barely understandable. It is not the same French that was spoken in France in pre-revolutionary days. Although some expressions have remained unchanged, the accent has become something unique, created solely by Quebecois.

[@ReidGarwin]

@@300books it's the same as American English. The diverging histories of the US and the UK have resulted in the different accents. The RP accent isn't the same as the 17th century English accent, but neither are the American accents. They completely evolved and changed.

Those "shì" and "zhè" sounds also appear in anishinaabemowin (Ojibwe language) and they are very common. The nasalized "n" also appears at an extremely high frequency so, while maybe less important in an economic sense, Ojibwe is another language that speakers have a headstart in learning. I'm certain there are other interesting similarities and exchanges between these two languages. They've spent a good few hundred years in contact.

It's just the perfect embodiment of our expressions and cliches haha. Amazing job on this video it's just so great ! Not only you are good in both languages but it goes even further than that; the difference between standard french and Québécois, all the origins and the littles nuances also.

I'm from France but I've been living in the States since 2006 and I still haven't made it to Quebec but it's been on my bucket list for a while. I've had coworkers from Québec and I loved learning the different words and expressions. Among those, I love "Allô !" when saying hi to someone, "C'est correct" to mean "It's okay/it's fine", or "C'est l'fun" for "It's fun". We definitely don't use these in France. We do add one "là" at the end of sentences too sometimes, especially when asking a question or using an imperative. It's also very common to shorten "Qu'est-ce que" to "Qu'est-ce/kess", we just don't use "é" at the end :). "Tsé" is also used a lot in France and we like to say "pis" instead of "puis", like in "pis après..." (then after).

[@emounoema2617]

I was born and grew up in Montreal and then moved to Belgium. I can tell you that a lot of people here already think it's its own language. They were asking me things like "Tu parles le canadien?" "Comment on dit... en canadien?" Also they think a Quebecois talking is the funniest thing on earth. They also have a very hard time understanding the accent and dialect so they often put subtitles on tv when there's a Quebecois speaking, mostly on french tv though (France). At first I got a bit annoyed, feeling like I was more of a circus animal more than anything, getting asked to "speak in Quebecois" and then be made fun of... But with time I just realized most people aren't trying to be disrespectful but more so they are fascinated by how different french canadian sounds compared to belgian french or to french in France. My accent has faded with time though so I don't get noticed as much now but I usually pick it back up again when I go back to Montreal (not right away like I used to when I was younger but eventually I do). Anyway great video, brought back a lot of memories from Montreal! I'm happy to see I still know how to use all of these words in sentences haha

Languages evolve over time which is natural. Brazil and Portugal Portugese is not the same, Spanish is spoken in many countries and is not the same. My family is Quebecois, my mother does not use all of these expressions in this video. She uses less slang and her family. Also some British accents are extremely hard for me to understand, I need subtitles. Quebec also in many ways more protective of the language than France. People can be very unfair and uneducated criticizing Quebec French. It is Quebecois not Canadian.

[@annabelle7123]

Emma Stanley Yeah I had a Belgian friend and he thought I got Canadian French accent just by staying a year in Toronto and thought it was hilarious... (so I know what French and Belgians think) but hey my French teacher in Canada told me "all accents are accents, Belgian, Canadian, Parisian and they are all relative, not absolute!" Well I got the Parisian accent after living in Paris for 2 years afterwards. Good to see you proud of Québécois language and/or accent!

[@murderoustendencies]

C'est tellement insultant. Dieu sait qu'en plus c'est pas tous les Belges qui sont compréhensibles à notre oreille non plus. Ça me fâche un peu parce que je trouve que nous on fait full d'efforts pour comprendre les autres et souvent eux... Eh bein. Ouin.

[@LinusOva]

It's funny you say that, because I'm Canadian from BC and did not grow up speaking french at all. In my early 20's I went to Belgium for a year and worked and lived in French. When I told people I was Canadian they would always say "oh but you don't sound Canadian!" and proceed to tell me how weird Canadian French is. Fast forward to today, and I am living in Montreal. For the first 6 months here I could not understand a word anyone was saying. It really shook my confidence because I thought I was pretty good at French by the time I left Belgium. Really strong Quebecois accents sound very different from the French spoken in Belgium or France. It's not a bad thing, but Canadian French is definitely very different from European and (I'm assuming) African French.

Just discovered your channel. Finding it informative & entertaining. In Singapore we use "lah" (with "h") a lot for emphasis as well. It's part of Singlish (Singapore English slang) for example- when in disbelief- "Really? No, lah!!" When annoyed with someone & u want them to stop or u vehemently disagree u might say- "Eh, stop it, lah!" or "C'mon, lah" or "Rubbish, lah". It comes from the Malay language which is the national language. It's in our national anthem- Majulah, Singapura! (Something like Progress on Singapore- sorry forgot what official translation is). 😊

"Icit" is from old french. We didn't add the "t", but Old World speakers dropped it.

[@heyyuston5929]

Merci Mark, je suis en Columbie Brit. et le Quebec me manque. Tu m'as fais rire à tel point tu es juste sur ta demo. Bon travail sur tous tes videos. J'apprend l'arabe en ce moment, tes videos sont très divertissants. Bisous💋 tu es vraiment "cute" en plus!

[@canadagood]

When I was a young adult in British Columbia and Alberta, I made friends with a bunch of young Anglophones from wealthy 'Anglo' parts of Montreal such as TMR and Westmount. They *all* swore using Quebec French terminology while speaking in English. I found that endlessly amusing.

[@TAKEmeTOtheMORGUE]

"aweille" right orthography is "envoye" and it is the old prononciation (v and u are the same letter in classical French and it was pronounced like a "w") and it is the old orthography for "envoie."

[@lecoureurdesbois86]

TAKEme TOtheMORGUE La vieille prononciation du "v" latin oui!

[@kimartish4585]

Awesome video!! Please do more to teach my kids french!

[@jacktingey7886]

Excellent video! As to the "tu" appearing in random places, there is linguistic evidence that this relates to an earlier French dialect around the Centre du Quebec region that evolved from a creole of French and native Wabanaki. "Tu" would likely have been a native word that was thrown into the mix in the 17th century. Quebecois is such a fascinating dialect!

[@canadagood]

This comment - along with a few others here - has got me wondering about the subtle ways that languages like Wabanaki, Ojibwe, Cree and Algonquin have influenced both modern Canadian French and modern Canadian English. There are a few obvious words (canoe, kayak, teepee, etc) but I suspect there must have been many more native languages influences of grammar and pronunciation.

[@billcreton]

Mark, tous les pays et certains(es) provinces/régions de ces pays on aussi leur joual. Aussi, ce n'est pas tous les Québecois qui sacrent ou parlent comme tu le décris.

[@DavidfromBA]

Au Nouveau-Brunswick, une caissière m'a demandé "T'es comptant ?" Je pensais qu'elle me demandait si j'étais content, et je me demandais pourquoi elle me posait cette question. J'ai fini par comprendre qu'elle me demandait si je payais en espèces.

[@Wither02]

Payais en espèces? Chais pas si c'est comme ça quon dit en France mais c la première fois qjentends ça. (Chuis Québécois) nous on dit pièces.

[@DavidfromBA]

@@Wither02 Oui, c'est en France (mon pays natal) qu'on dit "payer en espèces". J'adore le Québec en passant.

[@Wither02]

@@DavidfromBA ah, merci. J'aime la France et j'ai hâte d',y visiter aussi.

[@bobbiusshadow6985]

Au Québec aussi, on dit payer en espèces ou comptant (formel), en liquide (plus rare), cash (angliscisme couramment utilisé).

[@bobbiusshadow6985]

@@Wither02 Je suis de Montréal et "payer en espèces, payer comptant" se disent tout le temps et de façon formelle. Je n'ai *jamais* entendu quelqu'un dire "payer en pièces". Des fois, j'entends "en monnaie". 1ère hypothèse: ça doit être quelque chose de régional. 2ième hypothèse: C'est une déformation de "en espèces" ou une de ces choses qu'on a mal comprise la première fois qu'on l'entend, mais qu'on répète à toutes les fois qu'on l'utilise, même que c'est au point d' "entendre" l'erreur au lieu du terme correct, surtout quand ils sont phonétiquement proches. Juste mon opinion sincère et honnête, sans vouloir te vexer.

[@ColbertSmith]

I'm Canadian from Manitoba. I have a French family and went to French immersion school. Being that this was on a mostly academic level what we learned was relatively simple and formal, with little to no slang or any of these dialectical variations. As a result I find I understand metropolitan French MUCH easier than Quebequois French, and I find that almost strange lol.

[@ethangender]

Indeeeeeed.

Hey thanks 'cause I'm really challenged by Quebecois French. Listening to your video will help me in that matter.

Merci pour la demo très authentic et bien expliquer

[@laura29_xo52]

Ouin non, le français du Québec n’a presque pas changé depuis le 16e siècle, là où les premiers colonisateurs sont arrivés. C’est plutôt la France qui a modifié son langage. Le icitte est un mot dérivé d’un dialecte français, du temps où les français ne parlaient pas encore couramment français. Même chose pour le « moé », « toé », « coéfeuse » : le son « oi » était considéré comme de faible langage et le son « oé », le langage noble. Et les sons « ts » (tsu au lieu de tu) et « dz » (dzu au lieu de du), ça s’appelle l’affrication. C’est plate que quand on regarde Radio-Canada, par exemple, ce sont des différences qu’ils essaient d’éliminer! Moi j’suis down avec notre différence culturelle. (Pis prochaine fois qu’un français pense que j’parle anglais, allemand ou belge, j’lui lance un globe terrestre dessus)

[@mottahead6464]

Quebecois French is its own thing. And the French living in Montreal simply love to criticize the way Quebecers/ the Quebecois speak French. My answer to to those guys? This is not France, dude. Isn't that obvious? Can't stand it? You're free to go back to France. Leading a nice life in Montreal and don't want to go back to France? Then deal with it, dude. And forget about the Quebecois changing the way they talk just because you ranting French don't like the way they talk. That just won't happen. Cappicce?

[@giullianosep]

It's more or less the same thing Portuguese people do with Brazilian Portuguese, they say we don't speak Portuguese but only Brazilian. I like the French language and I'm aware of the different accents that do nothing but make the language even richer, those people are just ignorants.

[@davibourne3856]

Giulliano Douglas Never had any trouble with that. In fact, mostly of portuguese people came to Canada during the dictatorship regime so they know how it fells like be in a place where you initially is called foreigner. They like Brazilian accent and even give compliments but, there people in continental Portugal whom are just jealous, specially after the portuguese language agreement that standardized the portuguese closer to the brazilian written. In this way is very understandable because for the Portuguese, their language carries their legacy. Some people are just disrespectful and it happens with Brazilians towards Portuguese as well.

[@MsDaddou77]

As a Tunisian, we get the same ignorant ranting/remarks about our Tunisian version of Arabic from some Middle Eastern Arabs especially some Egyptians, Gulf Arabs for not speaking “proper Arabic”. We just tell them we are not Arabs to speak “the purest form of Arabic”. Our dialect is a mix of Arabic (usually we use some old classical Arabic words), Berber words obviously, Italian and Spanish (North Africans conquered part of the Iberian peninsula, Malta and Sicily as well long time ago) and French. So Tunisian Arabic today is closer to Maltese which many of us understand better than say Yemeni Arabic. Ok, that is my two cent of ranting :)
