Paroles de la Louisiane
Paroles de la Louisiane is a new educational series that encourages teachers and learners of French in Louisiana to explore more material in Louisiana French, or the vernacular (less formal) variety of French as it is spoken in Louisiana. This 7-episode series is a co-production of LPB (Louisiana Public Broadcasting) and CODOFIL (Council for the Development of French in Louisiana).
In each episode, language scholar Amanda LaFleur and French immersion teacher Ryan Langley examine a piece of recorded Louisiana French: a scene from a play, an interview clip from an archival recording, a song, etc. The two co-hosts then discuss the Louisiana-specific aspects of the language used in it.
