MODERATORS
I need conclusive Lemmy anecdata on a key question: is Quebecois French considered antiquated by continental (both European and African) French speakers? Are the differences subtle or not?
It's not considered antiquated. The Quebecoise's accent is considered exotic. Their effort to create new French words instead of just taking over the English one is also very cool. E.g: téléverser (download), divulgâcher (spoiler).
Clavarder grace à son butineur
Not antiquated, they just sound a little like hillbillies.
