Explain how Quebecois French developed.

Answer:

Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following information: Quebecois French is spoken in the Canadian province of Quebec. This region originally was settled by French-speaking people. However, the area was isolated because people in surrounding regions spoke English, and the nearest French-speaking communities were across the Atlantic Ocean. As a result, Quebecois French diverged from Parisian (Standard) French and now uses an older vocabulary that is not used in modern France.
