 Coolness: 130400 | French and english have a lot more in common than you may think ;)
French Language - Definition [ www.wordiq.com ] The Norsemen or Vikings invaded France from the 9th century on and established themselves in what would come to be called the Normandy region; they took up the langue d'o�l dialect spoken in that region but also contributed words to French dealing with, among other things, maritime activities. With the Norman conquest of England in 1066 the Normans took their Norman language to England; the dialect which developed in the Norman realms as a language of administration and literature is referred to as Anglo-Norman which was the language of the ruling classes and commerce in England, from the time of the Norman Conquest until 1362, when the use of English was resumed. Because of the Norman conquest, perhaps as much as two thirds of modern English comes from French. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Part 1: The French Legacy According to a famous paraphrase of a quote by James D. Nicoll, "English doesn't borrow from other languages. English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar." And loose vocabulary, we might add. Lexicographer and etymologist John Ayto has remarked that English is "an inveterate borrower from other languages." It has been estimated that more than two-thirds of English vocabulary can be traced back to foreign loanwords. Throughout its history, English has been shaped and enriched by words and phrases of French, Scandinavian, Italian, Latin, Greek, Spanish, German, Russian, Dutch, Yiddish, and Japanese origin. Some of these words have been "naturalized". For example, we don't stop to think that the "very English" word "kitchen" is ultimately derived from the Latin verb "coquere" (to cook), or that good old "anger" was originally borrowed from Old Norse and is also related to the Latin and ancient Greek verbs for "strangle". On the other hand, several lexical borrowings into English flaunt their non-English origin. The following list is a sampler of commonly used French phrases in modern English. aide-memoire (literally: help-memory): a mnemonic device ambiance (literally: surroundings): mood, character, atmosphere (e.g. of a location) au courant (literally: in the current; and yes, the English word "current" is of French origin): up-to-date, fashionable au naturel (literally: in the natural state): served plainly; nude au poivre (French for "with pepper"): as in steak au poivre (served with a lot of ground pepper) avant-garde (French for "the front guard"): a progressive artistic movement bon voyage (literally: good journey!): farewell bourgeois (French for "townsman"): member of the middle class compte rendu (literally: account rendered): review, report, statement of account cul-de-sac (French for "bottom of the bag"): blind alley double entendre (literally: double meaning): ambiguity; an expression open to two interpretations, one of which is usually indecent |

 Coolness: 51065 | Je m'en tiens honoré autant qu'on saurait croire*.
Je suis un pauvre pâtre, et ce m'est trop de gloire, Que deux Nymphes d'un rang le plus haut du pays, Disputent à se faire un époux de mon fils. Puisqu'il vous plaît qu'ainsi la chose s'exécute, Je consens que son choix règle votre dispute, Et celle qu'à l'écart laissera cet arrêt, Pourra pour son recours m'épouser, s'il lui plaît. C'est toujours même sang et presque même chose. Mais le voici; souffrez qu'un peu je le dispose. Il tient quelque moineau qu'il a pris fraîchement, Et voilà ses amours et son attachement. Contentez nos désirs, quoi qu'on en puisse croire, Et ne vous chargez point du soin de notre gloire. Mais en faisant refus de répondre à nos voeux, Au lieu d'une,séparation souvraine , vous en outragez deux. Mais quand le cœur brûle d'un noble feu, On peut sans nulle honte en faire un libre aveu. Cette liberté nous peut être permise, Et du choix de nos coeurs la beauté l'autorise. Brisez les tristes fers du honteux esclavage Où vous tient du péché le commerce odieux, Et venez recevoir le glorieux servage Que vous tendent les mains de la Reine des Cieux. L'un sur vous à vos sens donne pleine victoire, L'autre sur vos désirs vous fait régner en rois; L'un vous tire aux Enfers et l'autre dans la gloire. Hélas! peut-on, Mortels, balancer sur ce choix? Comment donc? Qu'est-ce ci? Qui l'eût pu présumer? moi qui ose prendre parole dans une éloquance Joual, mais que dis-je discours impromptu que je me suis résolu a rectifié.... puis-je aussi bien pigé keu dale aussi... |

Je suis entièrement d'accord avec vous autres. Si c'est une si belle langue qu'on doit la maintenir en vie dans un environnement majoritairement anglophone, pourquoi autant de monde la massacre ? Faudrait commencer par arrêter de la decalisser avant de défendre. Pourquoi autant de gens ont cette langue à coeur et en sont de fervent défenseurs mais si peu se donne la peine de l'apprendre assez pour sonner moins pire qu'un anglo qui essaie de l'écrire du mieux qu'il ou elle peut ? Je ne parle d'avoir un niveau de français équivalent à un prof de français universitaire là. C'est la loi du moindre effort pis moÉ j'pogn po caliss, stu cleire ? |

 Coolness: 87185 | "in quebec, french vs. english is kind of like black vs. white down south... "
well French people weren't brought over here as slaves, so considering what actually happened to black people over here, it's really not fair to them to make that analogy. I am not in any way trying to diminish the oppression or persecution the French suffered here at the hands of Anglo-Scot protestants (and since I come from an Irish family and am the first one in my family to be born over here, we had nothing to do with that) but I am just saying it can't be accurately compared to what black people have gone through down south |

Well I don't see it or feel it, and I work in tons of places where I'm like the only anglophone, Only once some dude came up and insulted me at Passeport because I wouldn't play a request (fucking goths) He was like "sale anglais" or some bullshit, I had him thrown out of the bar, problem solved Anyways I just think its a pretty backward way of thinking in a global environment, Beside the french were just as colonialistic as the english, where I lived it africa it was an old french colony and they treated the people there like shit, so its not like the english were any worse. |
