How to approach speaking French in Montréal as a beginner?
Salut tout le monde!
Je viens de Turquie, mais je vais commencer l’université à Montréal en septembre. Je suis un peu nerveuse parce que je parle juste un tout petit peu français.
I started learning French recently and I want to learn French well to fully integrate and respect the Québécois culture.
I‘m writing this post to learn about the language etiquette so I don’t come off as an entitled Anglophone.
Are people friendly or helpful when they see someone trying to learn?
Is it okay to start conversations in French (e.g.; with a shopkeeper) even though I won’t be able to carry a full conversation or understand them fully?
Je suis désolée if this question has been beaten to death in this subreddit, lol. Merci beaucoup!
