Acadian French (French: français acadien) is a dialect of Canadian French originally associated with the Acadian people of what is now the Canadian Maritimes. The dialect is still spoken by the Francophone population of the Canadian province of New Brunswick, by small minorities on the Gaspé Peninsula and the Magdalen Islands of Quebec as well as in pockets of Francophones in Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. read more

It is a literal hodgepodge. read more
