Support aussi par la communite Anglophone Quebecois(e) Ne a Montreal en 1961 encore ici parce que j’adore Le Quebec. Je fier de vient d’un place unique en Amerique du Nord. Il y a plusiers Anglo avec les meme sentiments. Cheers mon ami d’un Queblokois lol de Montreal. Excuse mon Francais mal ecrit. 😎
Bravo au Gouverneur Landry de la Paroisse de St Martin pour ses efforts en vue de promouvoir la culture et la langue française en Louisiane. Je me souviens que mon père connaissait plusieurs Louisianais quand il travaillait comme mécanicien dans la base aérienne américaine de l'OTAN près de Metz (France), avant 1966. Et tous ces collègues américains parlaient le français comme père et mère. Vive la Louisiane.🥰
You’re going serving some official capacity? Or just taking a personal trip? Because if there are any orgs that are dedicated to bridging that gap I wanna hear about that
Contrairement a ce que certains peuvent dire parler une autre langue ,se souvenir d’ou on vient et vouloir proteger cela est une force non une faiblesse pour la Louisiane soyez fiers de ce que vous êtes, comme nous le sommes de vous entendre jacter le français,nos cousins ❤
il faut aussi investir dans l'enseignement de la langue française aux lycées et á l'écoles (surtout l'école primaire)...á mon avis, le plus tôt sera le mieux.
Oui à l’indépendance du Québec!!!Surtout durant celui de 95, où toute ma famille (mes parents et mes grands-parents), ont votés OUI pour la libération. En plus j’ai découvert que mon arrière grand-père, 11 fois arrière, faisait partie du régiment craignant-salières donc en votant oui pour l’indépendance c’est comme si je respectais tous les efforts qu’il a mis sur la nouvelle-France. Courage mes frères de louisiane, si les québécois on pu défendre ma belle langue vous pourriez aussi le faire. Au revoir de la part d’un québécois un VRAI.
this was a super interesting interview! i’m from the UK and i’ve been learning french and i’ve just fallen in love with all francophone cultures. it’s amazing what you guys are doing to preserve the french language in louisiana. i wouldn’t say that my politics majorly align with louisiana typically but it’s amazing to see the work down there from all sides of the aisle because i think it truly is one of the most incredible languages in the world with such a deep history and it would be awful to lose such an important part of it!
Bonjour depuis la France, merci de faire vivre la langue a travers le monde, meme si les Acadiens ne sont pas assez mis en avant dans l'univers Francophone
Je suis content qu’un gouverneur conservateur (républicain chez vous ) anti avortement , chrétien, soit attaché à défendre la culture et la langue de ses racines , de NOS racines communes : la France , royale et catholique toujours bien sûr ⚜️
Louisiana is by far the richest state in culture and in climate. Too bad it's one of the poorest. And don't forget the Isleños (Spanish speakers descents of Spanish colonists).

Two things: 1) yes, Louisiana is going to need to be more progressive in its values to be attractive in terms of establishing stronger bonds between the people of French-speaking Canada (such as Quebec) and France and 2) a huge swath of la Francophonie is of African descent (from Haiti to the nations of west Africa) and so again being open and tolerant is also an additional factor in establishing stronger bonds with other French-speaking peoples in the 21st century
If we can mobilize political action, we can make Louisiana independent from DC and solve some of these problems. A poll showed already 50% of Louisianans prefer independence. Vive la Louisiane!

There’s a lot of beating around the bush, but the essential fact is that French in Louisiana has lost its traction, French-speaking people being assimilated fairly fast. Had the interview had taken place in French, as “Cajun-ish“ as it can be, I would have thought there would be some hope. Une langue perdue est un monde disparu…
The governor doesn't speak French well enough for him to be interviewed in French. He made it clear. That has nothing to do with whether policies are implemented to reinvigorate a language .
@Reazzurro90 It's a valid argument on the surface that the governor doesn't speak French. Yet, although he is of French ancestry in a formerly French-speaking area, he wasn't able to carry the conversation in French for different reasons. Where do those reasons point? It is the case with many minority languages across the world.
@@abcMW1989The governor doesn’t claim to be French-speaking himself, but supports efforts to boost the language. You’re making it about him when he’s not trying to.
He totally avoided the question about primitive beliefs in LA regarding abortion, religion, and other social issues. Shameful. Too bad the interviewer did not press him on it (though he is quite handsome--nice hair 🙂).
Lets just be honest its dying and not coming back... this guy is a prime example.. his whole family spoke it and yet he cant. You cant force ppl to learn a language that they dont speak their new generation of families and society doesnt either. Its dead.... quebec did a grreat job because of french language laws and official language is only french.. thats how you keep a language alive esp when its around english
The French language (France &/or Louisiana) is more prevalent today than recent past. The interviewer created "Télé-Louisiane" to promote the language/culture. In New Orleans (NOLA), there are many French schools (grade level to adult). My realtor sent his daughters to NOLA French grade schools & upon HS graduation, they were fluent. As for me, I've been learning it since 2016. It's not easy! I'm not Cajun, but NOLA is my culture. I feel an obligation to learn it. Also, there're French teachers from Europe/Africa who immigrate to LA just to teach French. LA is trying to repair from the horrible "No French" laws. Of course, there's the internet; didn't exist before, which has a wealth of learning apps. I'm enrolled in 2 NOLA French online classes & a French speaking online course from Europe (real time). In our recent past, the French president, French ambassador, & the Spanish King/Queen visited NOLA & BR. I don't think that happens in other states.
Oh please, the schools in Louisiana should focus on teaching children to speak proper English before they start trying to teach them a whole new language
There's no reason they can't do both. Children are most receptive to language so it's best to get them learning early. Just because the population has largely assimilated into the English majority (you can Google how that was accomplished and how quickly) doesn't make French a whole new language. Je suis fier de ma deuxième langue.
La Louisianisation c’est inévitable. Les jeunes vont jamais utiliser la langue comme leur anciens ont l'utiliser. Toujours plus en plus loin dans le passé. Le Québec est l’avenir du français en Amérique du Nord
Louisiana is no longer French. What culture has it got in common with France? Only a few % of Louisiana people can speak French. So it's American culture not French. Why is the interview done in English?...
Of course, Louisiana is no longer French . It is American. But South Louisiana has vestiges of the French influence that is unique to it. The cuisine, the music, the accent. It is different . WHen you come down here you will notice it. It is not north Louisiana. That is the French legacy that caused that. That is what we are trying to preserve. So that New Orleans does not become just like Shreveport or Lafayette, Louisiana does not turn into Lafayette, Indiana. If you don't know that I mean by that, then you have never been to South Lousiana.
USA don't have an official language and american culture isn't a thing only states have culture of their own. If Louisiana wants to work, study and speaks in French in majority it's their rights to do so for their cultural heritage, same thing for Maine, Missouri, Illinois etc...
Because nobody here knows French anymore. Hence the entire interview being about how to preserve and promote it… Also in many ways this is the least American place in America
Soutien à mes amis francophones de Louisiane. Expatrié français à Seattle, WA et prof de français!
Quelle coïncidence! J’ai resté dans un Airbnb à Seattle et certains voisins étaient expatriés français. Ils enseignaient le français aux states.
Salut Je suis un Anglophone Quebecois. C’est toujours un plaisir du l’utilize mon Francais. Cheers from Montreal
I’m no Landry fan, but I’m 100% behind this. Vive le Français dans la Louisiane!
Louisiana has my support in renewing its French language and growing its usage across the State.
I hope the state renews the French language as well as the Indigenous languages of the area
J’espère la même chose pour la Louisiane. Le français acadien/cajun est une belle vielle langue pour l’état aux États Unis ⚜️
Longue vie à Télé Louisiane ! Vos ancêtres seraient fiers de voir que vous n'oubliez pas qui vous êtes et d’où vous venez. Bravo !

They should make Louisiana bilingual like New Brunswick, Canada. Mandatory French in school along with English.

I’m going to Nice France in order to help bridge the gap for New Orleans and France… would love to discuss it further…
Nice isn’t really France. It’s a sort of « Fascistan » for old people… 😢
I think the sybolic thing to do would be to go to Orléans, the old one.
You’re going serving some official capacity? Or just taking a personal trip?
Because if there are any orgs that are dedicated to bridging that gap I wanna hear about that
@@miloPRcohen I chose Nice because it’s more affordable. Until I get funding, it’s the most cost effective decision.

Bonjour lointains Louisianais, j'espère un jour venir dans votre état afin de découvrir nos similarités culturelles. Amitiés
La meilleure façon d’enseigner une langue: immersion totale à l’école maternelle, puis enseignement bilingue à l’école élémentaire et au collège.
Je suis un français qui va justement passer ses vacances en Louisiane, vive la Louisiane!!
Je suis un louisianais qui va passer ses vacances en France. Vive l’amitié Franco-louisianais!

We really need to recreate New France through some kind of bond between Quebec and Louisiana
Exactement, ça viendra

Louisiana should take a page from Quebec. Mandatory French signage. Menus in both French and English. Encouraging the French language in business.

Louisiana is by far the richest state in culture and in climate. Too bad it's one of the poorest. And don't forget the Isleños (Spanish speakers descents of Spanish colonists).

But we need to focus on the descendants of the French first . Then we can discuss the Franco African people

Moi, je le deteste.
Imagine France reunited with Louisiana
Conseils de mon avis pour y protéger la langue
- écoles disponibles français/anglais/creole
- comme Québec, obligatoire pour les restos/magasins d’avoir un nom français (café Starbucks, etc)
- ajouter le français / créole aux panneaux comme Irlande/irlandais
- encourager les francophones à y déménager
- plus des émissions télé et nouvelles disponible en français /creole
- vol direct Airfrance à destination de Paris (Montréal existe déjà)
- changez le drapeau à qqch plus significatif
Pour dépenser de l’argent sur les choses préventifs, on va voir un effet à long terme génial et de grande valeur
Je ne cherche même pas à comprendre l'anglais. Y aurait il une traduction en français même avec les sous titres...
We also share culture with the Isleños (Spanish speakers). #Neverforget.
Les peuples premiers ont-ils aussi la possibilité d'étudier dans la langue de leurs ancêtres ?
I love Jeff Landry. To me he sounds like Cajun Saul Goodman.
French Polynesia to the Ivory Coast, French is a major language today.
No, it isn't. 😂
