Polentaccio I would tend to say québécois sounds quite "slow", maybe because of the very distinct, peculiar intonation (really a general view of course). In some parts of France, patois, ch'ti, and others dialects or even neutral french can be super-fast and almost incomprehensible for non-locals. Depending on personalities and places as well of course. Then you have the really slow french accents, like the Swiss and partly-Belgian ones (which in very different ways are so funny but oh so dear to us)

@Polentaccio

8 жыл бұрын

Oh boy, I would call it anything but slow. Are you sure you have enough experience with it? If anything, it is probably close in speed to some of the dialects or regional french you have described in other areas of France. It isn't a speed competition but you need to listen to her in french canadian interviews (which already are much cleaner than what you hear on the street) and then compare it to french canadian films that aren't dubbed or what you hear on the street in every day situations. All things said, she def does have a canadian accent when speaking french and she is controlling how much of that ends up in this interview. It comes through when she speeds up her responses though! But even at that, it is nothing compared to the french in my area! (outaouais: Gatineau/Hull or Franco Ontarian variants in this region)
