Talk:Acadian French

A dialect/variety is not close to become a language even if sometimes it is not understandable. Wikipedia is being used by people with some ideas that are incorrect and full of POV. Please correct if this is really a language and not a variety. Maybe some pride Americans... -Pedro 11:35, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC)

I removed the bit about alveolar R. Most Acadians actually use the uvular R, as in France. Only a few villages might use alveolar. --142.166.97.102 18:26, 31 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I would just like to state that Acadian French is not derived from Cajun, but rather vice versa. Cajuns are the direct descendants of Acadians deported during the "Grande Dérangement". The name 'Cajun' is actually a derivative of the French word 'Acadien', which is pronounced by Acadians as 'A-ca-jeune'.
