I was just talking to someone I work with how it makes me sad that cajun french is almost nonexistent now
My Bro and i grew up with grandma and grandpa having friends over for coffee and all conversations were in Cajun french. We didnt understand a word they were saying.

Same here. When my grandparent grew up speaking French was frowned upon.

Grandparents and their friends would always shift to Cajun French when they didn’t want me to know what they were talking about. Really wish I would have learned it and not been so hardheaded about learning a different language.
I do remember this one time, I asked my grandmother to help me with my French homework, and I failed….lol. I argued with the teacher over it that she was wrong because my grandmother spoke French, but I just didn’t realize it was such a different language from tradition French.
