Thanks, this is very helpful! I sometimes hear people (such as our mayor, LaToya Cantrell) stretch out New Orleans to "New Or-lee-anz," but definitely no one says N'awlins.

Thank you so much for this resource Christophe, I have just ordered the book.

A Lousiana creole here, and you did a good job. Just revisit New Iberia area last week and YT video sent this to me.

Really interesting. Mwen palé kwéyòl Sent Lisi. Really happy to see this!

When I say Christopher Landry is the truth...

Super intéressant!

Eh la bá

Hello Christophe. It’s great to hear the language from you again. I think it would be great if you uploaded more videos of learning the kouri vini language. Grammar,expressions, and things we should know. Great video

Thanks for sharing! 1/2 St. Landry and 1/2 Avoyelles Creole here eager to preserve my heritage 👋🏾⚜️

I just had a son 5 months old .. super happy to hear it .. 13 yr old daughter also.. had speaking it good , 👍

CONGRATS .!!!!

Can we get a video on kouri vini slang words!

The Landry family is related to our Bourgeois family; i.e. Jacques Bourgeois, b. circa 1633 in the Alcase-Lorraine District of France.

Bonjou. 💯

Here is one for you - Ouachita. No one outside of Louisiana pronounces that one correctly.

Doctor Landry, this is really good! I ran across a few on a "pronounce these LA place names" video, but the phonetics were very unclear. Maybe you can help. The 3 are: Plaucheville [PLAWSH-ville?], Cloutierville [CLOOT-er-ville?], Chopin [like the composer?]. Thanks very much.

Lafayette we don't produce it like you do.

If you're from Louisiana you know we pronounce Lafayette, Laffy ette. Yes the way you said it is the correct but it's not the way Cajuns pronounce it. Homua is south east of Lafayette, it is south of New Orleans.

Hello Sir! I came here to learn how to properly pronounce Plaquemine! Prayers to you, your family and LA, MS neighbors! 🙏🙏🙏🙏

I realize that this is an older video but I was so happy to find it!! My grandfather and great grandparents were born in Raceland. I've never been really sure how to pronounce some of the Parish names and your video has helped! I've also been working on my family genealogy for about 40 years. I've hit some dead ends - including the inability to find out when my great grandmother died {Marie Ophelia Boudoin, b 12 Nov 1853 in Lafourche Parish}. Some of the other names in my family are Knoblock, Toups, Lagemann, Thibodeaux, Azemar and Waguespack. I can't wait to watch some of your genealogy videos!

“No. One. Here. Says. Naw’lins!” This should be on your border’s welcome sign.

Hey Chris! Mon Grandpa Romero est né à Lafayette en 1915. Il est mort quant j'était jeune, mais, aurait-il a parlé comme ça?

Are there any efforts to include Kouri-Vini things like this in DuoLingo? I’d love to see courses and exercises I can start practices daily via mobile.

Thank you so much for sharing! Also subscribed to your channel as well! Putting this in my cart to purchase! Can you tell me if these authors are Black?

What's KV?

Just bought this great resource! I’m hoping more people will begin to speak Kouri-Vini and Louisiana French again in Louisiana
