Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from French-Canadian Verse Written These French-Canadian poems were selected from a number that the author has written from time to time and are those that are more easily read and understood by the average English-speaking person. There is really no such uniformity of dialect among the "habitants" that could be followed with any degree of certainty. Every French-Canadian has his or her own peculiar method of expression in the use of the English language. Some have difficulty in the use of the pronoun, some again speak the English fluently and almost faultlessly, and it is only on rare occasions that a slight misuse of a word or expression exposes their origin to the close observer; but the remaining and more numerous class go battling along through the verbs, pronouns, and adjectives at will - unaffectedly but ruthlessly. These verses are, therefore, not offered as a criterion of the French-Canadian dialect, but merely the English used by some of the types that the writer has observed and known.
