To understand the Québécois, you must learn how words mesh in ways you never learned in French class. For example, je suis contracts to j’su’ (it sounds as though it were spelled chu in French). Even simple words like dans la or sur les or je lui contract when they come together, and you need to learn how if you want to understand the Québécois one day. The sooner you start learning these contractions, the better.
