In Quebec, the linguistic majority abuses the groups they call anglophones and allophones. |
In Quebec itself, the francization of allophones is too sparse to make up for the deficit incurred by inadequate francophone fertility. |
Occasionally it is convenient to use a transcription in which some of the allophones are represented by specific symbols, or some of the phonemes are designated by the symbols for a more restricted set of categories. |
They are considered allophones, which hinders their sense of belonging and visibility in Francophone communities. |
The fricative g and plosive q are likely to be interchangeable allophones of a single glottal phoneme. |
Now that the Canadian and Quebec governments are trying to pick immigrants who already speak French or English, it will make it harder for allophones to do well here. |
