"Le parler populaire des Canadiens français" by N.-E. Dionne is a linguistic lexicon written in the early 20th century. The work serves as a comprehensive dictionary of Canadian French vernacular, compiling approximately 15,000 words and expressions, including Canadianisms, Acadianisms, Anglicisms, and Americanisms, aimed at both scholars and the French-speaking populace. The focus of the lexicon is to explore the rich and unique characteristics of the spoken language used by French-speaking Canadians, providing numerous examples to illustrate the meanings and contexts of each term. The opening of the text begins with a preface that emphasizes the importance of studying the variegated dialects and popular languages within a single language, specifically highlighting the Canadian French vernacular. It outlines how this book was developed in response to a growing interest in understanding how linguistic evolution reflects societal and psychological dynamics among the French-speaking populations in Canada. The author illustrates the nuanced ways that everyday language in Canada has taken on particular meanings and forms, influenced by historical ties to France and subsequent cultural exchanges, including anglicisms. As such, the introductory portions set the stage for an in-depth exploration of the unique vocabulary and expressions that define the Canadian French cultural identity.
