One of the (many) things I love about living in multilingual environments is the code switching, as everyone chooses the words they like best out of the available options. For example, anglos in Montreal pick up "dep" super quickly. It's short for dépanneur, which in France French means a repairman. By extension, in Canadian French (and franglais), it means a convenience store -- that solves a problem when you can't get to a big grocery store. #codeswitching #languages #Canada
