it's hard to articulate, but alot of quebecois people sound like non-native french speakers who speak the language fluently, but miss out on some of the little nuances. quebecois sounds kind of flat compared to regular french imo.

France french and Québec french are like UK english and USA english.
Both have grown on their own in their part of the world and sorta became something different.
The way it sounds but also a word here and there.
For example "Gosse" in France is slang for kid. In Québec it's slang for testicule.
Québec french is a bit harder in the way it sounds. There's a lot of contractions and missing sounds implied when talking.
I will go: Je vais y aller.
If a Québécois is talking he'll contract it too: J'va y'aller.
There was a video of a cute french girl living in Montreal who pretty much did a whole comaprison on with France and Québec french.
Can't find it though.

is it fair to say quebecois isn't quite as guttural as normal french?

Surprisingly pleasant to ears, but in reality it's probablity just a retarded dumbed down version of the original thing like American English, Mexican Spanish or Brazillian Portuguese.
>>52283344
It does sound different. Like American english compared to British, it feels more neutral and accent-less to me.

Is Quebec french seen as "peasant" accent to French people like redneck American accent and regular American?
Sounds like a dumbed down version of French, especially the way they articulate the vowels.
>>52287993
I have to agree. it really does not sound as pleasant to the ears as regular french or even the swiss french.

>With the onset of British rule in 1760, Quebec French became isolated from European French. This led to a retention of older pronunciations, such as moé for moi and expressions that later died out in France.

Outside Quebec we're taught Parisian French so we sound more educated to the rest of the world.
But then again outside Quebec everyone speaks God's chosen language anyway so French is pretty useless.
>>52283344
Intonation is flatter I guess, French French sounds more passionate.
Like French spoken by people who don't modulate their voice as much.
So kinda like US vs.UK English.

How is possible ? For a french like me, québécois french sounds more accentuated while french is straight.
Like a nastier sounding French

Learn2americandialects. They tend to be phonetically simpler so people who's not familiar with the language find them more neutral and less extravagant. Join the former colonizers club, we all know that pain.

That's normal Quebec French in this movie. It's not internationalized.
>>52290343
I've never met/hear a Canadian outside Quebec who speak like a Parisian. They pretty much don't exist. It goes from like Quebec to absolutely disgusting (chiac).

What do you think of this Quebqt?
>>52283344
I can't tell the difference between any French dialects. It is all overwhelmingly nasally to me.
