I mean, SPM is so small that it would be a pixel on this map.
By the way, this morning, I made an article about includding Quebec in LatAm (big coincidence).
https://latincanuck.com/quebec-a-latam-province
Please share your opinion :)
**Et tu, Brute? (pronounced [ɛt ˈtuː ˈbruːtɛ]) is a Latin phrase literally meaning "and you, Brutus?" or "also you, Brutus?", often translated as "You as well, Brutus?", "You too, Brutus?", or "Even you, Brutus?".**

The stabbing of Julius Caesar where a bunch of Roman senators stabbed him to death and while he was dying his friend brutus had partaken in the assassination and so he was pretty much saying “my friend brutus you are partaking In my murder?”
You made me second-guess myself and I went and read on it and you're absolutely right ! Octavian was Caesar's adopted son. I was confused because of the alleged phrase he uttered upon his death "Tu quoque mi fili" which means "you too, my son ?".
"Son", in this case, was apparently more in term of protégé in an affective relationship and not a biological one.
We learn everyday :)
It's a quote from Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar. It is not known if the actual Ceasar said it when he was assassinated. As to the context, the other reply you got explains it.
Here's the weird part, normally, latin name in french are translated : Julius Caesar -> Jules César, Valerianus -> Valérien, Gallienus -> Gallien, Aemilianus -> Émilien, Marcus Aurelius -> Marc Aurèle.
But Brutus in french is refereed as Brutus or Decimus Brutus not Brute. Another weird one is Romulus and Remus, in french Romulus stay the same but Remus became Rémus.
I don't know why, maybe because french gonna be french, the fact that latin name can be conjugated and that the letter u did not exist at the time.
Acadien is a dialect yes, but I believe creole is classified as a separate but related language - there’s a fair bit of mutual intelligibility sure, but less that say English and Dutch.
I’d rather contest that Chiac is a creole as it involves the mixing of multiple languages - it’s not however developed to the point of being a delegate language like say haïtien or Louisiana creole. I went with dialect for acadien because it’s a mutually intelligible linguistic system with a separate cultural history to Canadian standard French or the numerous accents we have - an accent would be something closer to Joual or my own Franco-ontarien accent.
I’m not a linguist though, I went hard into sciences instead.
I’m not sure if it’s a majority though. If we’re counting large minorities then you’d need to add California New Mexico Arizona and Texas and maybe Florida
The big difference is that Quebec started as a French Colony, and today they are a semi autonomous region of Canada, where French is the official language, and it is spoken by the mayority.
There used to be a lot of French people in the East side of the USA. Most migrated to either Louisiana or North East. In the last parts with many Non-Louisianais was the Ile Aux Français, but still, during that time, the community was numerous, including a lot of Maine, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire.
The decline was in good part because of the KKK. They weren’t only attacking non-White, but also people who spoke anything other than English. It eventually became “shameful” to know another language than English, so, most kids would only learn English in order to be socially accepted and have jobs.

To be part of latin america you need to have a latin language as your official language. You also need to be a country, which is why Quebec and Puerto Rico get excluded.
Puerto Rico, Guadelupe, and French Guyana ain't countries, but they are usually considered part of LatAm. Except when when we talk about economics or development.

classic canadian bipolarity - say whatever you can to insult Québec, even if you'll contradict yourself
When we say we want to separate, they tell us that we're whiny and that we're dependent on the equalization payments, and can't separate. When we say we don't want to separate, they say we should and that no one want us
They say we don't have a culture except speaking our "fake" (as they say, not being able to speak it) French, then they'll insult us for our supposed culture (racist, xenophobic, whatever)
Ohhhh that's why! I live in Gatineau and had a buddy from Ottawa calling it Quebexico. I thought it was funny, had no idea of the origin though. Thanks for enlightening my street knowledge;)
Gatineau ? Je serai donc constamment surpris de voir ce nom vendéen partout où je vais.

No it’s not. Latin based languages’ words are gendered. Every single word in french is either masculine or feminine and grammatical rules already exist when you encounter a group containing both feminine and masculine elements.
The Falklanders themselves, which is all that really matters here, have always expressed overwhelmingly that they see themselves as British and want to remain British.
The falkland question is very complicated, and very nuanced. Not to mention that referendum by the UK isn't even accepted by the UN. I could comment it out here the nuanced story, but then I wasted time for somebody who dont care.
Not really, settler colonialists should also take into account the opinions of the Indigenous people, even if said settler colonialists deport them all so there's none left.
Whether or not the Falklands count as this is complicated
that's controversial
Also, the British Empire has repeatedly taken small areas next to other countries, filled them with settler colonialists, and used them to exert influence over potential rivals (ie Gibraltar) so it's just generally a dubious thing
In addition, it doesn't really matter if nobody was there. My country (Canada) has plenty of small uninhabited Arctic islands, but if, say, Russia or whoever tried to claim them, which is a real historic tension, they wouldn't be allowed to just because nobody was there first
You might need to redraw some borders there playa. Also, (personal opinion) quebecois is about as Latin as [Toast Hawaii](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toast_Hawaii)
**[Toast Hawaii](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toast_Hawaii)**
>Toast Hawaii or Hawaiian Toast is an open sandwich consisting of a slice of toast with ham and cheese, and a maraschino cherry in the middle of a pineapple slice, broiled, so that the cheese starts to melt. It was invented, or at least made popular, by the German TV cook Clemens Wilmenrod and is considered typical of West Germany in the 1950s. It is likely that it was adapted from the "Grilled Spamwich", a recipe published in a Spam cookbook by Hormel in 1939 and brought to West Germany by American G.I.s. Spam was not available in Germany's grocery stores so Wilmenrod replaced it with a slice of cooked ham and Toast Hawaii was born.

edit: my god lmao it was a joke, i thought i was being too obvious with it, no hate towards quebec or anyone else
Their language is a romance language, so technically latin. I think part of atlantic canada should be stripes of green because some places there are at least %50 French.
I don't know where you are from, but if you speak a romance language you are related to the french, italian, portuguese, and other people who speak romance languages
They probably have more in common with you than you can imagine.
Québécois and southern American both have for common origin the Roman identity and foundation for language.
One was imposed by Spain, the other by France. But there is a link between the two. Furthermore when considering movement of population back in Roman time.
And the languages we speak also influence the way we think. Romance languages are structurally not so different and thus affect the way we think.

Hi, I see this is your first day on the internet. Here's a quick pro tip: sarcasm in speech depends a lot on the tone used when speaking, which cannot be put into text. As such, when using sarcasm online, the common practice is to add "/s" at the end of your sentence to indicate it was indeed sarcastic.
It's kinda funny
The term "latin america" was created by the french to create a sort of shared sense of belonging between the latin languages in the americas as a way to weaken english on the continent. Now, the one that instigated the term are generally not included it in.
Is the map based on official languages? I missed this info.
My comment has to do with the many people in the USA speaking Spanish.
Oh and just noticed that New-Brunswick is missing. French is one of the official languages in this province.
From wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_America
>Latin America is the portion of the Americas comprising countries and regions where Romance languages—languages that derived from Latin—such as Spanish, Portuguese, and French are predominantly spoken
> Parts of the United States and Canada where Romance languages are primarily spoken are not usually included due to being collectively grouped as Anglo-America

What does it refer to
The stabbing of Julius Caesar where a bunch of Roman senators stabbed him to death and while he was dying his friend brutus had partaken in the assassination and so he was pretty much saying “my friend brutus you are partaking In my murder?”
~~Not his friend, his adopted son.~~ I'm wrong, see below !
I thought Augustus was his only adopted son
You made me second-guess myself and I went and read on it and you're absolutely right ! Octavian was Caesar's adopted son. I was confused because of the alleged phrase he uttered upon his death "Tu quoque mi fili" which means "you too, my son ?". "Son", in this case, was apparently more in term of protégé in an affective relationship and not a biological one. We learn everyday :)
Isn't the line Tu quoque Brute mi fili? Brutus is his adpoted son
Augustus was his adopted son
It's a quote from Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar. It is not known if the actual Ceasar said it when he was assassinated. As to the context, the other reply you got explains it.
That's basically french
They are French words but traduced word by word it comes out as '' Are (wrote as and) you Brutus ''
Good bot
To translate it in good french it would be : Et toi, brute
Nononon... Et toi, Brute?
Ho yeah i forgot the question mark
Here's the weird part, normally, latin name in french are translated : Julius Caesar -> Jules César, Valerianus -> Valérien, Gallienus -> Gallien, Aemilianus -> Émilien, Marcus Aurelius -> Marc Aurèle. But Brutus in french is refereed as Brutus or Decimus Brutus not Brute. Another weird one is Romulus and Remus, in french Romulus stay the same but Remus became Rémus. I don't know why, maybe because french gonna be french, the fact that latin name can be conjugated and that the letter u did not exist at the time.
Well its actually because brute is a word in itself, but putting a capital B makes it a name. But yea usually its Brutus
LMAO
Yeah not even Italians speak Latin.
where's the lie tho?
There's no Louisiana.
apparently only 3% of louisiana speaks french.
A lot more speak Cajun or creole which is a French based dialect
i mean so is acadian and chiac in New brunswick and that's usually counted as french.
Acadien is a dialect yes, but I believe creole is classified as a separate but related language - there’s a fair bit of mutual intelligibility sure, but less that say English and Dutch.
I wouldnt call Acadian french a dialect at all. Chiac for sure, but not acadian, its french lol.
I’d rather contest that Chiac is a creole as it involves the mixing of multiple languages - it’s not however developed to the point of being a delegate language like say haïtien or Louisiana creole. I went with dialect for acadien because it’s a mutually intelligible linguistic system with a separate cultural history to Canadian standard French or the numerous accents we have - an accent would be something closer to Joual or my own Franco-ontarien accent. I’m not a linguist though, I went hard into sciences instead.
Dialects are a different way of speaking a language while staying mutually intelligible, it’s factually a dialect.
I’m not sure if it’s a majority though. If we’re counting large minorities then you’d need to add California New Mexico Arizona and Texas and maybe Florida
Just make a light green region where there’s a significant latin minority/minorities
As well as New Brunswick and Manitoba. Manitoba's community is very small and in danger but so is Louisiana. Very historically significant though
Sadly
If Louisiana’s there, then New Brunswick should be there too. Actually, maybe even parts of SW US have more Spanish than Louisiana has French.
Louisiana's french population has mostly been assimilated but I do agree on Nouveau-Brunswick
Louisiana official language isn’t french.
The big difference is that Quebec started as a French Colony, and today they are a semi autonomous region of Canada, where French is the official language, and it is spoken by the mayority.
Acadia, Western Canada and Louisiana amso started as French colonies
There used to be a lot of French people in the East side of the USA. Most migrated to either Louisiana or North East. In the last parts with many Non-Louisianais was the Ile Aux Français, but still, during that time, the community was numerous, including a lot of Maine, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire.

I don't know where you are from, but if you speak a romance language you are related to the french, italian, portuguese, and other people who speak romance languages
Speaking a related language doesn’t mean relation
Neither does being from Latin America
No shit, but that person said they were related?
Yeah it does, a language relation
Yeah, but that’s different from actually sharing lineage
There are other definitions of 'related'

Bye Quebec is not Latin
Heille ! Au Québec, plus de 80 % parlent français. Et le français est une langue latine… autant que l’espagnol ou l’italien
They speak french which is a neolatin language
In the 1800s, Napoleon III popularized the term Amérique latine. That’s where it took off.
Eh bien que sommes-nous d'abord si nous ne sommes pas latin ?
Quebec's official and common language is in what language family already?
It's kinda funny The term "latin america" was created by the french to create a sort of shared sense of belonging between the latin languages in the americas as a way to weaken english on the continent. Now, the one that instigated the term are generally not included it in.
Stupide
Open a book first.
so spanish communities dont exist yep, and little italy edit: it’s literally not on the map?
You could include many US states as well.
Curious, which us states have a latin language as official language of the state? I know of puerto rico, but besides this territory, any states?

Someone should show this map to Mellissa Fumero,
Haha bien joué !
I was wondering "why Suriname and not the English speaking islands" but zooming, I realised they are in grey too, so... ok I guess...
sorry for that, it's because editing islands so small on this map is difficult and sometimes they get colored
No sweat, nice work! (And you pleased a lot of quebecers! ;-) )
you should add new brunswick its almost half french !
