CHAPTER

The Bonjour Effect: A Guide to Speaking in France

Jean-Pén Juan-Edo and Julie Barlow are a husband and wife team of Canadian writers based in Montreal. They wrote up what they had discovered about the unwritten rules beyond vocabulary about speaking French in France rather than in Canada. Their book is The Bonjour Effect, which helps us understand the subtext and what's expected when speaking in France. We have a link to their website with this week's show at Ricksteves.com.
