Welcome

[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Here are some other hints and tips:

  • I recommend that you get a username. You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and there are many benefits of having a username. (If you edit without a username, your IP address is used to identify you instead.)
  • When using talk pages, please sign your name at the end of your messages by typing four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your username (or IP address) and the date.

If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my talk page, or type {{helpme}} on this talk page and a user will help you as soon as possible. I will try to answer your questions as best as I can. Again, welcome, and I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian. — Mr. Stradivarius 15:15, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from French language in Canada with this edit.

If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

As you can see from the edit summary, the content removal had already been explained on the talk page. 96.46.204.126 (talk) 05:29, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I now see that you undid your reversion of my edit. 96.46.204.126 (talk) 00:07, 15 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm writing a grammar of French that includes rules of pronunciation. May I use the rules you provided for determining whether eu is pronounced [œ] or [ø], or are they copyrighted? Interchangeable|talk to me 22:28, 14 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Sure, I wrote that myself, so you're free to use it. However, I didn't take the same degree of care in writing it that I would have in writing a book. Make sure to use other sources as well. French Sound Structure by Douglas Walker was the main source for what I wrote. I didn't mention vowel harmonization, which is a significant factor in open non-final syllables.96.46.204.126 (talk) 20:35, 15 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! You really should create an account - for a while I was afraid your IP address had shifted and I would never get an answer. Interchangeable|talk to me 22:54, 15 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I see you're Canadian. So am I. I've always been irked by the relative lack of coverage of Canadian French in reference books on the language. Perhaps you can remedy this! 96.46.202.232 (talk) 23:15, 15 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Actually the book doesn't detail Canadian French at all; after all Canadian French doesn't differ very much grammatically from other dialects as far as I know. (What do you know... the moment I posted that last message your IP address shifted.) Interchangeable|talk to me 18:54, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I thought it was funny too, about my IP address. As for Canadian French, there are a few differences. Some are mentioned in Oui... au français québécois standard, which can be found by Googling. One of my favourites, which isn't mentioned there, is how Canadians can tell the difference between Université de Montréal (the university; note also the upper case U, contrary to European usage) and Université-de-Montréal (the metro station). I don't know if you'd call this grammar. In any case good luck! 96.46.193.139 (talk) 19:55, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
