Jennifer and Dennis Stroughmatt explain Missouri Creole French dialect

[JiSeguin]

Many tend to say "moé" instead of "moi" in Quebec... It's incredible to see how a language can survive this long while being in the center of this big english speaking nation...

Do people still speak French down in the ozarks I heard it was nearly extinct

@cheeveka3

Pas Encore. On toujours continuer de parler la langue q'arrive' icitte plus de 300 ans passe'. There are still between 50 and 100 people who speak the language with varying degrees of fluency.

@fiddlincreole your guys should get support you could some from Louisiana, Quebec, Maine theres are a lot of native fench speakers i know thye would be willing to support the survival the french there

[cheeveka3]

@fiddlincreole i feel that should be some info of it but i feel it should be reconized so please if you can you should appeal to othe franophone people or just reveal more doumenation of that dialect or just document just to preserve it for more usage of it know if you appeal to even linguistics they could help preserve it thats just me though i know you guys would get tons of support but ya got 2 get known first
