Hi, it's Jackie! Welcome on Apprendre le français québecois! Well... yes... I'm
back in my London decor! But I spent one week in Quebec and I
filmed all sorts of things that I'll be posting in the next months... Today
we will start with a video that I filmed in an appartment in Quebec. So I
went to Mont Tremblant and I rented an appartment over there so I told myself that we
could look at this together. We can look at the name of the rooms and a little bit at what
it looks like. But before we start, don't forget: you can put subtitles in French
and in English! You can also click on the little setting wheel to slow down or make it faster.
So you can modify the speed. And can also click on the red
button to subscribe! So subscribe if you haven't done it yet! Ok so we will
start. I filmed the video and it was a little bit dark. I am sorry. We see
well the rooms but it's a little dark. So I'm sorry with it's a little dark but
I think we can still see well. Please note that it's an appartment
not a house. So there are a lot of Québécois that are living in houses
but I personally rented an appartment so I will show you an appartment. But
I think it looks like what we could find in a hous also.
With the bathroom, etc. It looks a lot like what we can find in a
quebec house. So let's go right away. Ok, so when we enter, we
enter here and so we have "l'entrée". So here, there is me and here "l'entrée" where
I put the shoes. So, in Québec, you need to take off your shoes. So we leave
the shoes here. In the house, in Quebec, we rarely keep the shoes. So we put them
here. Let's continue... We are getting.... We have "le salon" (living room). We have "la télé", we have "le foyer" (fireplace).
Here we have "un foyer". And here we have "un divan" (a sofa). I think it's a "divant-lit" (Sofa-bed). So we have
"un divan-lit". We will continue here... We have "la cuisine". So there is some kind of space here
"salle à manger" (dining room) here. So after, we have "la cuisine". In "la cuisine", there is "la cuisinière".
Here, this is "la cuisinière". And here, we have "un lave-vaisselle" (dishwasher) with "un évier.
And we have "un frigo" (a fridge). Here, we have "une galerie", "un balcon". So "une galerie". On "la galerie", there is "un barbecue",
"une table", "une chaise". I won't make a lot of noise because... Look! You see?Hum...
Here, There is "un micro-ondes". I forgot to say it. There was "un micro-ondes" in "la cuisine".
We continue here... And we have some kind of mini-corridor. We have "la salle de bain", but before entering
in "la salle de bain", here, there is "une laveuse" (washing machine). So this here is "la laveuse". And here, we
have "une sécheuse". For "sécher le linge" (dring the clothes). So "laveuse, sécheuse". In "la salle de bain"....
Up, we'll light it up... We have "une toilette". "la toilette". We have "un lavabo" (sink) here. We have "un lavabo".
We have "un bain" (a bath). So we have "un bain" with "une douche" (a shower). Just here, we can see "la douche". So it's
"un bain-douche" (bath-shower). That's normal in Quebec to have "un bain" with "une douche". We continue...
There are "deux chambres" (bedrooms). So this... There is "une chambre" here. A nice "chambre". In "la chambre",
there is "un garde-robe" (wardrobe). We call this "une garde-robe" or "une penderie". So "les garde-robes" are
often like this. So in the wall in Quebec. And we have here some drawers to put clothes,
"une commode". So "une commode". And if we go to the other "chambre", it's the same. There
is "une fenête" (window), "un lit" (a bed), "des petites tables de chevet ou des tables
de nuit". "Un commode". And another "garde-robe". Here. So... Voilà! Now, please note that
it's not normal do have "chevreuils"... Yes, so the animal we saw dehind the appartment, it was "un chevreuil"
(deer). It's not normal to have this in... in the backyard! Sometimes we
might see so racoons or skunks. But not "chevreuils". And there
aren't any bears either! A bear? There are any of this... normally
in the backyards of the houses. Now this was special because we were at Mont Tremblant.
and it's a little bit in the forest. But that's not something we'd fin in Montreal
for example. Or in Quebec city. You really need to go out of the city to see deers.
You can leave maybe in the commets what you found was very
different from where you come from. Are there things that are really different
from where you come from? Tell me in the comments! To tell me what is very different
in an appartment from Quebec and an appartment where you come from! Don't forget to subscribe
and to leave a thumbs up. And I'm saying À la prochaine, bye!
