Talk:Chiac

message: This is so excellent! I'm very happy to see the correct spelling added -- I think I just assumed "shee-ack" was "chiaque".
One question: I've heard about revival, artists' use of Le Chiac, etc. I think there's even a dictionary or two somewhere. But I don't have any info, and can't find such on the Web. suggestions? --ESP 21:56, 3 Mar 2004 (UTC)

message: Would it be worthy of inclusion to mention that 2 documentaries were made (both by Michel brault) by the ONF about it ? These were : Éloge du chiac (1969)& L'Acadie, l'Acadie (1971). --Marc pasquin 17:57, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

message: I grew up and spent dozens of years in SouthEast New Brunswick, and I've heard the term Chiac used for the "second meaning" and not for the first, for which we would simply say "Acadian French". Chiac is a type of Acadian French. What are the sources on the first meaning? Does it really mean that too?--Sonjaaa 05:54, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: two meanings?

message: As a "native chiac", I was pleased to see some documentation on my language!I'm familiar with the documentary "Éloge du chiac". Although outdated, I thought it was fascinating to see how Chiac was perceived then and how it is now. And to my knowledge, around here, it's always been spelled that way. To the comment that "chiaque" looked more french; well, the definition of chiac is, after all, a mixture of french and english, right? I also think that the line "corrupted by English" is too strong and negative.
:Well, if we're going to go there, French corrupted English into it's current mess, so we're just returning the favor. :) --72.88.210.56 18:59, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

message: The content of the page is recently becoming very vulgar in it's examples. There's no need for all the crotch jokes. They need to be removed.
I'm assuming you don't know anyone who speaks Chiac.

message: Wouldn't it be nice to have some audio in this article? I have no idea how chiac sounds...
:I would add some if it weren't for Wikipedia's misguided policy forbidding mp3s. -Adjusting 00:18, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

message: "Moi chu acadienne, hein?" written : "Moi, j'suis Acadienne, hein ?" is perfectly good spoken french and quite admissible even in writing. Chris CII 12:31, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  A not so telling example 

message: I have assessed this as Start Class, as it contains more detail and organization than would be expected of a Stub, and of low importance, as it is a highly specific topic within Canada. Cheers, CP 03:24, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Assessment 

message: I removed this: "Most other French Canadian groups, such as Québécois and Brayon, dislike Chiac as they find it to be a mockery of the French language." Someone should provide a reference for this, if it's true that some 'French Canadian groups' expressed this opinion towards Chiac/Acadian French. But in any case, it's not true to say that MOST French Canadian groups dislike Chiac. As a Québécois, I admit that speaking with someone from New Brunswick can be exotic and even funny sometimes (in a good way), but I've never heard of anyone here expressing any disdain of the Acadian French. And it's certainly not the opinion of the majority. 209.222.236.142 (talk) 22:58, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

message: The example sentences section has gotten out of hand. It's up to 38 examples, almost none of them sourced, and growing. There might be a lot of WP:OR in here. There should be only enough to give a sense of this language variety, possibly enough to highlight each of several points that one might make about it. At this point I'm not sure that the selection is making any point other than "Look, they mix English and French together", and it doesn't take 38 examples to illustrate that.
