Qui est francophone ici?

Je le suis. Je me demandais parce que je vois les sightings pour le Québec et je suis en train de me demander si on est pas rendu une gang de français assimilés qui parlent anglais entre eux. :P

Re: Qui est francophone ici?

French is my first language also but, since this is a majorly English speaking site, I use English for public messages and French when I send private messages to people who I know speak French.

Re: Qui est francophone ici?

Je suis francophone aussi, et comme j'ai peu souvent l'occasion de converser en anglais je tente de me pratiquer sur le forum. Je n'aime pas vraiment le terme "assimilé" surtout si on utilise une langue par choix, peu importe la langue maternelle. Dans mon cas, comme je disais plus haut, ça me donne une occasion d'apprendre a maîtriser une autre langue. D'un autre côté, il est vrai que pour les "Quebec toy sightings" rien ne nous empêcherait de les rapporter en français, car mis Ã* part les anglophones qui résident près des frontières du Québec et ceux qui passe de ce côté-ci par affaire ou pour visiter je ne crois pas que nos amis transfans du reste du Canada passeront uniquement pour prendre possession d'un jouet qu'ils n'auraient pas trouver dans leur secteur.

Re: Qui est francophone ici?

J'suis franco! C'est pas une surprise de voir des franco ici, on est quand même sur un site Canadien, donc ça comprend les québécois et les canadiens francophones. Je crois qu'il est possible de converser ouvertement en français, mais il faudrait aussi y inclure une traduction en anglais pour en guise de respect pour nos amis les anglophones (sinon, Ã* part dans les PM). Comme l'autre gars l'a dit pus tôt, c'est pas une question d'assimilation (même si j'sais que t'as utilisé ce mot en joke) et j'aimerais le préciser, car il y a du monde qui croît encore qu'on se fait malmener par le bout du nez par les anglos. En tout cas, longue vie Ã* la langue française et la langue québécoise(sans trop rentrer dans le joual)! =)

I'm franco, and it's not surprising to see french-speaking people on this forum since it's Canadian, which include people from Quebec and other french-speaking Canadians. I believe it's a possibiliy to openly converse in french on this forum, but we have to provide an english translation out of respect for our fellow english-speaking friends. Like the guy before me said, it's not a question of assimilation (I know you were lighthearted when you said that) or anything and it's sad people still think this way. Anyways, Go french-language!

Re: Qui est francophone ici?

Not francophone...but was enrolled in french immersion for 12 years and spent quite a bit of time in Jonquiere and Chicoutimi.

And to the Admin, maybe a suggestion...but discussing this option before you state that it has to be english it would be a good idea to maybe allow it in frech for Quebec sightings, I know they have a grasp of the english language but at the same time they have every right to use their primary language as well...if you really wanna know what they say use babelfish or something.

Nothing wrong with speaking a little french in my opinion.

It's very, very simple, we need to be able to read posts, we can't do that when it's in a language that we can't read. All we're asking is that you post a translation.

Thank you.

Re: Qui est francophone ici?

I don't see how posting Quebec Sightings in french is a problem, although mods might have to check (translate) occasionally that the posts are actually about sightings and not something against the rules.

On a side note, it must suck living in Quebec, since so many contests exclude Quebec

Like ebay's latest contest, heh.
