Why is the name french and indian war misleading?
Additionally, both the British and their American colonies also had Indian allies, so there's that.
And the Seven Years War has also been called the true First World War since (if we consider the F %26amp; I War a part of it) it ranged across Europe and over to the North American continent.
Reply:Because, the French and Indians were on the same side against the British and the British colonies. The name makes it sounds as if the French were fighting the Indians, rather than being allied with them against the British.
It's also worth noting that the name makes it sound as if the fighting was all focused on the North American continent, and that's also misleading. Most of the fighting happened in Europe, and some in the Caribbean and some even in Asia. It's only a fairly small side show of the whole Seven Years War which happened in North America.
Reply:The Bryce is Right...the French and Indian War probably should have been called World War I. There were battles going on in India and other places and the Treaty of Paris impacted the whole globe.

Why did the French name Novia Scotia after Scotland?
It was called Acadia when it was owned by the French. During a war, the land was lost to Great Britain. Most of the French who could escape fled to Louisiana. At the time, there was a problem in Scotland: the use of the land was being changed from farming to the raising of ship. Consequently, most of the working tenant farmers lost their jobs. Great Britain solved this problem by shipping the Scots to what was formerly Acadia and changed the name to Nova Scotia or New Scotland. There remains a very large population of people in Nova Scotia who trace their lineage to Scotland. There is a Celtic College in Nova Scotia where the music and culture of Scotland is taught and preserved.

Reply:Because it is beautiful.
Reply:It isn't French, it is Latin, and the use of Latin as an international language was much more common at the time of its discovery. Thus, most scholars at the time would know that it referred to New Scotland from the British Isles through to the Russian plains.
Reply:Its rugged coastline was reminiscent of Scotland. There were many Scots as well as French among the first European settlers.
Reply:as you have to be a pish head, junkie, retarded or a space cadet to want to live there, I guess.
Reply:Because Scotland is great and doesnt get enough appriciation
Reply:It was a Scottish colony for a time but the French recaptured it and rather than change the name they just frenchified it!
Reply:Are you sure it wasn`t the Italians,sounds Latin to me!
Reply:NOVIA Scotia? Have they discovered somewhere new??
Reply:because the french didn't name it - a scot did, after the french had already been there. So he wanted to get the name across to the french, who translated it into nova scotia.
Reply:The reason I heard is that when they saw the outline of land from the sea they thought it was Scotland st first.
Was it the French?
Reply:The French did not name it Nova Scotia. The called it Acadia. It was only after the British gained control of the area that it came to be called Nova Scotia.

How do you pronounce this French last name?
I have a French girl in my class. Her last name is Seillier. How do you pronounce it?
How do you pronounce this French last name?
Well, sometimes it depends. It could be Sailor, Say-ler, Si-lee-ay, Say-ell-ee-ay. I have a French last name as well, LeMaster, and people get confused with even that. I mean, c'mon, LeMaster?!? It's barely French! But I do admire the fact that it literally translates into "the master" in English lol. But when I have to spell it (cause people don't know if it starts with "le" or "la") they think i'm crazy. I say "L-E- Capital M" then they stop me and say "wait, is it just master?" and I have to explain it again. I almost feel sorry for this girl, if I get this reaction with my name, just imagine what she goes through with that. It's pronounced la-master, and it doesn't even sound French. But my last name has meaning, as I am related to Charlemagne, the king of kindness, he was a king of france i believe. He is my 28th great-grandfather, and the king of hearts in a deck of cards was based off of him. (like some others are Julius Caesar and stuff...) anyway, hope I helped! If all else fails, just ask her. it must be hard having tons of people each day mispronounce your name, so if you just ask her you can get it right the first time.
Reply:Well, if she's pronouncing it the proper French way, it's "SELL-ee-ah".
An "s" in the beginning of a French word is always pronounced like an "s". The "ei" combination is always pronounced like the "e" in "let". The double L's have a regular L sound. The "i" and "e" have regular long vowel sounds. The "e" is a bit hard to figure out, since there are many different ways "e" gets pronounced in French, with no real rules about it. However, it's definitely not "aye", as E's are only pronounced like that if they are accented. And the "r" at the end of the "ier" ending is silent.
Of course, because of the corruption of languages over the years, she may not pronounce her last name like this at all. I once knew a girl whose last name was Jacques--just like the French boy name, so you'd think it was pronounced "Zhock". Nope. She pronounced it "Jakes!" Talk about screwing up a beautiful language. So it's best to ask your classmate how she pronounces her own name.
Reply:I could tell you three ways to pronounce it, but I can't type it in very well. I would just ask her how she wants you to say it.
Reply:i would pronounce it

Grégoire or Gregory! Which one is the original?
My surname is Grégoire. Is my name french for the Englis name Gregory or vice versa?
The Greek Gregorios is the original form of this name. Gregoire is the French version, yes.

http://www.behindthename.com/php/related...
Reply:None of the two the original is Greek, Γρηγόρης (you can't really pronounce that in Engish or French because the sound Γ does not exist in those languages).
It came to the West through the Latin form "Gregorius," which was from the late Greek name "Γρηγόριος" (Gregorios), which was derived from "γήγορος" (gegoros) meaning "watchful, alert".
Generally most Christian names are either Greek or Jewish because these are the languages where the first Christian texts were written. (e.g. Helen, George, Peter= Greek,
Ann, Sarah, Mary/Maria, Samuel, Rachel, Jennifer, Daniel etc =Jewish). But in same case the pronunciation is so different it is difficult to realize the similarity.
Ah, and Γρηγόρης is also a very popular fast-food (sandwich/snacks) chain in Greece. (irrelevant)
Reply:Traditional French form of Gregory.
Gregory
English and Scottish: via Latin Gregorius from the post-classical Greek name Gregorios “watchful” (a derivative of gregorein to watch, be vigilant). The name was an extremely popular one with the early Christians, who were mindful of the instruction “be sober, be vigilant” (1 Peter 5: 8): it was borne by a number of early saints. The most important, in honour of whom the name was often bestowed from medieval times onwards, were Gregory of Nazianzen (c.329–90), Gregory of Nyssa (d. c.395), Gregory of Tours (538–94), and Pope Gregory the Great (c.540–604). The name has traditionally been particularly popular in Scotland, where it often took the form Gregor. Cognates: Irish Gaelic: Gréagóir. Scottish Gaelic: Griogair. Welsh: Grigor. French: Grégoire; Grégory (Provençal in origin, now more fashionable than the traditional form). Italian, Spanish, Portuguese: Gregorio. Dutch, Frisian: Joris. Swedish: Greger. Danish, Norwegian: Gregers. Polish: Grzegorz. Czech: Rehor. Russian: Grigori. Hungarian: Gergely. Finnish: Reijo.
Short forms: English: Greg. Scottish: Greg(g), Greig.
Pet forms: Spanish: Goyo, Goito. Russian: Grisha.

Reply:well I assume that as soon as a word is created, it doesnt have to be re-created in other languages, its the same word just translated.
so Grégoire and Gregory would have both existed at the same time, a long with whatever it is in all other languages in the world
Reply:Grégoire is French and is a christian name here in France, but christian names can also become family names sometimes (Martin, e.g)
Grégory is a derivative of Grégoire, whose origin is greek: Grêgorios, meaning "vigilant", "watchful"
Reply:No.
Grégoire is french for Grégoire.
Gregory is English for Gregory.
Gregory is the original - Everybody knows that the English do all the inventing and the french do all the copying...

Enter the name in this text-to-speech tool and choose the language and speaker you want:
http://www.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/...
It takes a few seconds for your media player to open so be patient.
As Rose T said, QU is just like a K sound and the N doesn't get pronounced as it is part of two different nasal sounds in "Quentin". The first syllable is similar to the British English pronunciation of "can't" but the second syllable has no equivalent in English.
By the way, the name Quintin does not exist in French, it is Quentin.
Reply:In English it is pronounced "kwentin". I am not aware of it being a French name, so that is how I would pronounce it. Probably an English or American person living in France.
Reply:Quintin it's not a name in french, it's just a little town in Brittany.
Reply:My fathers friend is called Quentin and he's french. So possibly that.
Reply:It's: Quentin
Reply:In French (and Spanish) QU is pronounced like a K in English.
Quentin would be something like KawnTAN.
Quintin would be something like KahnTAN.
In both cases, the n's are not fully pronounced; they are just hinted at.

Reply:It is an english adapted word or phrase as the french name was pomme frite, or fried potato's, in the Uk and here in Canada we call them chips, but else were around the world they have adopted the word's french fries, they were first made in Paris back in the 1700's, and the name has just stuck over the years, of course some one will shot me down with a Wikipedia answer, funny as a former chef who was in the business for over 20 years, I did pick up some wisdom over that time.
Reply:The name French Fries comes from the way cooks cut the fries in France. As you guessed, the French cut means cutting them into thin strips. French Fries came originally from Belgium, not France. South Belgium gained renown for them in the late 1600s.

well, you need the word Gateau in it. This is French for cake. So you could think of "un morceau du gateau" which means, a piece of cake.. or "gateaux Uniques".. which means unique cakes.. something like that.
Reply:Oui, Cakes......

Reply:Hi,
Well, you're not forced to use the word "g芒teaux"...
I suggest "Les d茅lices de (your name)": ltteraly the delights of... In French, "d茅lices" refers to something delicious, as you probably guessed, and this terme is often used to describe a very good dish.
If you chose to use the word "g芒teaux", you could use "La maison du g芒teau" (litt. the house/place of cakes), "Au paradis des g芒teaux" (cake's heaven) ,"Au pays des g芒teaux" (although "pays" (land) is triter than "paradis"). These names convey more an image of specialist. I suppose your cakes are rather original, so " Au paradis des g芒teaux" seems more appropriate.
Anyway, I suggest you use a name with several words. Terms alone like "sucr茅e", as mentioned earlier, do not convey much meaning... Furthermore, the use of several nouns separated by a "de" or "du" is typically French.
I have to eat now, you made me hungry... ;)
Reply:The naming of your business could be one of the most important decisions you will make. A name's originality and legal availability will create a real asset value of its own, as it becomes marketed and gains market acceptance.
The name you choose will become the focal point of all the benefits and features that relate to your business. Customers will be able to find and refer others to it in the future.
Since any names that are suggested here may already be owned by another party, I wanted to go a different route...
I suggest either hiring a name creation firm or get together with your friends and/or family and throw a "name party" %26amp; have everyone bounce some ideas around. Compile a listing of names that you like the best. Once you have that list, do as much free research as you can before you delve into comprehensive research.

I need a name for my business cards I create cakes weddings and birthday.would like a french name help thanks!
well, you need the word Gateau in it. This is French for cake. So you could think of "un morceau du gateau" which means, a piece of cake.. or "gateaux Uniques".. which means unique cakes.. something like that.
Reply:Oui, Cakes......
Reply:How about "La Maison de Gateau" I think that means "the House of Cake" Or "La Petit Patisserie" "The Little Bakery"?
Reply:"beaux gateaux" means "beautiful cakes," and it rhymes. pronounced "boh gah-toh."
Reply:votre g芒teau parfait pour chaque occasion...this could b ur slogan in french.....it says your perfect cake for every occasion.....and ur name could be...durcit en abondance- this means cakes galore....or it could be ...L'endroit de g芒teau _ the cake place.....just go to the website put stuff in and translate from english to french and voila!!! u got urself a name
Reply:Hi,
Well, you're not forced to use the word "g芒teaux"...
I suggest "Les d茅lices de (your name)": ltteraly the delights of... In French, "d茅lices" refers to something delicious, as you probably guessed, and this terme is often used to describe a very good dish.
If you chose to use the word "g芒teaux", you could use "La maison du g芒teau" (litt. the house/place of cakes), "Au paradis des g芒teaux" (cake's heaven) ,"Au pays des g芒teaux" (although "pays" (land) is triter than "paradis"). These names convey more an image of specialist. I suppose your cakes are rather original, so " Au paradis des g芒teaux" seems more appropriate.
Anyway, I suggest you use a name with several words. Terms alone like "sucr茅e", as mentioned earlier, do not convey much meaning... Furthermore, the use of several nouns separated by a "de" or "du" is typically French.
I have to eat now, you made me hungry... ;)
Reply:The naming of your business could be one of the most important decisions you will make. A name's originality and legal availability will create a real asset value of its own, as it becomes marketed and gains market acceptance.
The name you choose will become the focal point of all the benefits and features that relate to your business. Customers will be able to find and refer others to it in the future.
Since any names that are suggested here may already be owned by another party, I wanted to go a different route...
I suggest either hiring a name creation firm or get together with your friends and/or family and throw a "name party" %26amp; have everyone bounce some ideas around. Compile a listing of names that you like the best. Once you have that list, do as much free research as you can before you delve into comprehensive research.

Reply:No you wouldnt put an accent on the o.
Jolie is actually a french word, meaning pretty/attractive. Make sure you're still pronouncing the j and not making the start of the word into an elongated z sound.
Reply:No. Jolie does not have any accents on it. If it had an accent on the final e it would be pronounced zhoh-lee-ay. An accent on the o wouldn't produce a change in pronunciation but merely indicates that there used to be an s after the vowel, don't ask me what that's about.
Reply:If you don't put an accent on the i, Americans will say JO lee. If you want it French, you'll have to put an accent over the i--zhoh-LEE. I don't care for Angelina, but I love either way you pronounce this name.

Thank you

Here ya go:
Fish %26amp; Shell Fish - poisson: fish
aiglefin or 茅glefin: haddock
haddock: smoked haddock
anchois: anchovy
bar: fish, like bass
barbue: brill, related to turbot
cabillaud: fresh cod
calamar: squid
coquillage: shellfish
coquille St Jacques: scallops
crabe: crab
colin: hake
fletan: halibut
gambas: large prawns
huitre: oyster

Since Pacific "red snapper" is NOT native to Canadian waters (on the East Coast of Canada), the closest thing to "red snapper" is going to be "barbue" which is the closest to "red snapper" on this list: Snapper is a close relative of the cod family. Hope this helps.....You might want to print this out for a list that you can compare to what is written in French in the grocery stores.........

EDIT: I just emailed my sister, who lives in Saudi Arabia, and is fluent in French (since a child) and she says that red snapper is translated thusly:
poissons de vivaneau
Hope this helps.....

Where did the french name Larouche come from?
Thats my maiden name and i was just wondering if anyone knew where it came from and its history. . . . please let me know. thanks.
Where did the french name Larouche come from?
The following website gives some info which I am summarising here in case you don't understand French:
Today, the name Larouche is more frequent in Canada than in France. Itr is derived from a place name "la Rouche" which probably is another writung of "la Roche", meaning "the rock/ the boulder". There are about 30 villages called "la Rouche" in France, so it's nearly impossioble to pinpoint the one the family name is derived from.

"Larouche" is also explained as deriving from a variant of the nickname "Le Rousse", referring to someone with red hair:

French Name?
My ancestors came from France to Canada to Michigan...well that is not really very important but in 1495 I have a great x's a million grandmother that has a name I have never seen before. After here there are many girls with the same name. I think its very pretty looking but I have no idea what it means or how to pronounce it. I would really appreciate any help anybody can give me. Her name was Xainte.
French Name?
Just a hunch, but was her name Xaintes duPont? I ask because after 28 years of researching French-Canadian genealogy, I have yet to research any tree that doesn't trace back to Xaintes duPont and Zacharie Cloutier. You could almost say she was the mother of most of Quebec.
Since you're in Michigan (a wonderful place to be...now that we have a State budget again), I'm wondering if you're familiar with the French-Canadian History Society of Michigan. http://fchsm.habitant.org/ It was founded by John DuLong and there's a wealth of information in the group. There are a few chapters (Traverse City and Saginaw) that have suffered from apathy for the last year, but the Monroe chapter is still holding meetings. The group has also been instrumental in saving the Burton Collection at the Detroit Public Library. You might enjoy checking them out.
Reply:it means saint the ( x ) sound's like a s
pronounciation: s ant.
Reply:I could be wrong, but it may be pronounced as "sant". Meaning "saint". I seem to have seen this spelling used in churches' names.

Say it. It sounds beautiful and it does mean Saint.
Wow, got to use this name in a book I'm writing.
