Methinks you need to go back and reread what I wrote. I did not write that Quebec and French are the same. I wrote: Quebec (Province/Place); Kwara (State/Place) and the languages spoken in each, respectively. French, being the primary language in Quebec. As for Kwara, besides Yoruba, I know there’re Hausas and Fulanis there. I didn’t even want to list Kwara since I don’t remember ever going there at all. My folks took me there as a baby, so I’ve no recollection of it. But I still claim it since they’re from there and I can. Sure, I can. =p.

Your French looks like something you translated from an online dictionary. I don’t want to embarrass you, but it’s quite obvious, right from the first word. And “yes you know that one speaks Quebec in Canada? Did you realize what you wrote? If you're going to prove something to someone, at least make sure you know what you're talking about. I’ve practically lived here the majority of my life, so I know. You need to go back to that online translator and write a negative review, as it has done a terrible job of helping you prove you can speak the language, to someone who does. I spot a few other mistakes with what you wrote. If you want to speak real [b]F[/b]rench, polish yours first, then get at me.

Note: Even if I wanted to use French synonymously for Quebec, I would still be correct (but it would take someone living here to understand what I mean). Some Quebecers won’t even speak English to you at all.

Yes you did. Arochukwu is on the Abia-Akwa Ibom-Cross River border. The Ibibio are only a stone throw away from us. We speak both Igbo and Ibibio/Efik.
