![]() True, quebecers only use english word for auto mechanic.
At first it was confusing. Now it's confusing when I talk about my project with French people. Spark plug in french french is "bougie" (candle).

In French the car is "la voiture", or "l'auto(mobile)", but I quebecer it's "le char" which means a tank (armored vehicule) in french. As cars are usually bigger here, it kind of makes sense. |

![]() ![]() That said, it wouldn't surprise me to have been misled by the French.... when they're not busy surrendering; they do other bad things ![]() oh yes, and denpo is being funny - I said it was la voiture or le car.... he said "la voiture or le char" In french the letter "h" doesn't exist as a sound.... so to say out loud what he typed would be le car... funny guy ![]() Last edited by SuperBuickGuy; 11-28-2012 at 03:02 AM.. |

Québec language is called ''joual'' and if you go east provinces theres another dialect called ''chiac'' that is a mix of Acadians french and english. Yeah the same Acadians that were deported in the 1750 when the brits kicked out the french speaking communities out. The same who landed in New Orleans. They were Acadians and the name became Cajuns later. Now we say CHAR and we do pronounce the H in this one. Hey sorry to highjack this thread LOL Last edited by 1Michel; 11-28-2012 at 03:33 AM.. |
