Do You Speak Canadian
from The Tyee: Audio Edition Hosted by The Tyee
What makes a word Canadian? Sometimes it’s origin. “Demoviction.” “Renoviction.” “Trick or treat.” Sometimes it’s frequency. “Down island.” “Atmospheric river.” “Zombie fire.” These are just two of six types of Canadianisms, according to lexicographer Stefan Dollinger. Harrison Mooney, Tyee associate editor, writes. Published June 30, 2025. https://thetyee.ca/Culture/2025/06/30/Do-You-Speak-Canadian/
