I Need To Learn French for Canadian Customers. Any suggestions on best way?
I’ve been given the task of learning french due to our expanding canadian customer base. My question is- if I learn basic french will this be enough to get over the language barrier? I know that there are some exceptions in the vocabulary for french canadian- how do I learn this? Any suggestions for learning a new language? Thank you in advance!!
I really need to learn the language versus translate it.
Tangled – When Will My Life Begin? [Canadian French]
Sorry for the bad quality. The lyrics of the songs are fast the same as for the french european lyrics, but the lyrics for the dialogs are different. ACTRESSES / SINGER: Catherine Brunet: Rapunzel (speaking voice) Chloé McNeil: Rapunzel (singing voice) LYRICS: [Raiponce] Sept heures je me réveille et dehors il fait clair Vite, je balaye: il faut que la maison brille Je cire, je frotte, je range et je chasse la poussière Je nettoie chaque placard jusqu’à sept heures et quart Ensuite je lis un livre, et même deux ou trois J’ajoute quelques couleurs qui ne plaisent qu’à moi Puis c’est guitare, tricot, gâteaux et quelques fois Je me demande où est la vraie vie? L’après-midi je m’amuse et fait des biscuits Papier mâché, et ballet, échecs et math, Poterie, théâtre de marionettes et bougies, Gymnastique, arts plastiques, cordes et Pascal m’épathe Puis je relis les livres, je rêve d’aventure J’ajoute la couleur, il en manque, j’en suis sûr Ensuite je brosse, je brosse et brosse ma chevelure Dans cette prison où j’ai grandis. Et je me demande, et demande, et demande, et demande Où se cache la vraie vie? Et demain soir s’élèvent les lumières Comme c’est le jour de mon anniversaire A quoi ressemble cette soirée d’été Je suis plus grande, je dois pouvoir y aller… I OWN NOTHING OF THIS VIDEO!!

Hellfire (Canadian French) w/ subs & translation
The song “Hellfire” from Disney’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame in Canadian French. I think his voice is perfect for Frollo. Unfortuntately, I don’t know who sings this version. I didn’t translate the spoken part in the middle because even though I probably could if I really tried, I finished this literally at 2am. So no, I didn’t feel like cranking the speakers to hear what they were mumbling. =] Vocab: pourquoi – why l’Enfer – hell toujours – always cœur – heart péché – sin (noun) jeter – to cast (as in cast a spell or curse) Dieu – God sirèn – enchantress tuer – to kill I do not own “The Hunchback of Notre Dame”. “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” is owned by the Walt Disney Co.

Does the Canadian government subsidize French language courses for those who wish to learn French?
I’m specifically looking for schools in Ottawa, but any information or links to further information would be appreciated.
Also, are native Canadian language courses subsidized at all?
How different is the Canadian French language from the European French language?
Say, for instance, a French-Canadian and a French conversed in their own native language, would they be able to understand each other?
