Acadian French (French: Français acadien), is a regionalized dialect of Canadian French. It is spoken by the francophone population of the Canadian province of New Brunswick, by small minorities in areas in the Gaspé region of eastern Quebec, by small groups of francophones in Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, in the Magdalen Islands in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and a small swath of the northernmost portion (St. John's Valley) of the U.S state of Maine. The remaining majority of predominately-francophone Quebec speak Quebec French.
