If you all don't want me learning Quebecois because you don't want me knowing when you talk about me behind my back, that's fine. I just wanted to learn something new. You all like thinking of me as the ignorant American savage. Thought it would be nice to greet people in their native language.

Québécois is a special language rooted in culture. The French hardly understand a thing were saying. Quite like Ozzies and Americans. You need a history class combined to a language class to master. Why do you want to learn it anyway? We don't use it to talk behind someone's back, we use it between us because it's quicker and because we don't need to translate our thoughts and correct typos.
