"ebahir"??? WTF? The french language in Quebec has sure gone down the tubes in the last 40 years!!!
My GAWD....they have to "invent" new words now??? I spent the first twenty odd years of my life in the province...elementary school was taught to me by brothers in black robes who loved using a ruler on kid's knuckles who didn't get the grammar/words right.... four years of high school in a boarding school across the street from the St Joseph Oratory where there was only one way to speak/write correct french....
When I go back there now I am embarassed by the french I hear talking heads on TV deliver every night. It's like to be "trendy", cutting edge/ better than the next guy you have to "invent" new french words to be relevant....the whole thing is thrashing a very nice, precise, exact language. Very sad!
