Canadian French is a French language variety that’s spoken in Canada. Currently, there are around 7 million native French speakers in Canada. Another 2 million in the country speak it as a second language.
Canadian variety of French is the country’s official language alongside English. Most French speakers in Canada reside in the province of Quebec. In fact, the French language is the only official language of Quebec!
However, around 21% of Canada’s population are native French speakers.
The United States has an extensive Canadian expatriate community. Around 900,000 French-speaking Canadians reside in The United States. So the Canadian French variety is quite common in The US, especially in the Northern states.
The French language appeared in Canada in the 16th century. More specifically — in 1524 when the French explorer Jacques Cartier accidentally reached the shores of Newfoundland. This was the first time that France tried to claim this yet unknown land.
However, the French settlement in Canada began only in the 17th century in Quebec. During the 17th-18th centuries, the French language became the primary language spoken in Quebec and surrounding territories.
However, while the Canadian French variety has been spoken for quite a few centuries, only recently it got official recognition. In 1988, The Official Languages Act outlined that both English and French share the same equal and official status.
Canadian French is very similar to the French spoken in Europe. Both language varieties are mutually intelligible, however, share some differences. For example, Canadian French vocabulary has more anglicisms and the language itself sounds more archaic since it’s based on the 17th century French. Naturally, both varieties have differences in pronunciation as well as vocabulary.
Canadian French vocabulary contains loanwords from other languages. However, most of them were inherited from the European French. The biggest part of the vocabulary is comprised of Latin and Greek words.
However, Canadian French has a significant amount of English loanwords due to English being an official language in Canada.
The Francophone community in Canada is slowly getting smaller. Since English is still preferred in the official state matters, education, and in the work fields, the French language has been experiencing a decline.
Canadian French has four regional dialects: Acadian French, Newfoundland French, Quebec French, and Metis French. Quebec French is the most popular spoken variety of French in Canada. In fact, the majority of French speakers in Canada speak Quebec French.
Additionally, Canadian French has two sub-varieties. Joual — an informal spoken variety of French, and Chiac — a variety that blends the Acadian dialect with many English loanwords.
When it comes to recording a voice over in Canadian French, it’s important to know how the Canadian variety differs from European French.
The biggest difference between the two language variants is the pronunciation of consonants and vowels. Additionally, Canadian French has some sounds that are no longer in use in European French, for example, ‘un’. Naturally, depending on the chosen dialect, the vocabulary will greatly differ from the French one.
This beautiful commercial for Carter’s, adapted from American English, was voiced by Roxanne L.
Roxanne is a French Canadian voice-over artist with a back-ground in radio, television, and theater.
She has recorded for brands like Toyota, National Bank, Gatorade and Kellogg’s to name a few.
