Editing Quebec French (section)

== Pronouns ==
* In common with the rest of the [[Francophonie]], there is a shift from ''nous'' to ''on'' in all registers. In post-[[Quiet Revolution]] Quebec, the use of informal ''tu'' has become widespread in many situations that had previously called for a semantically singular ''vous''. While some schools are trying to re-introduce this use of ''vous'', which is absent from most youths' speech, the shift from ''nous'' to ''on'' has not been similarly discouraged.{{Citation needed|date=October 2019}}
* The traditional use of ''on'', in turn, is usually replaced by different uses of pronouns or paraphrases, like in the rest of the [[Francophonie]]. The second person (''tu'', ''t''') is usually used by speakers when referring to experiences that can happen in one's life:
** ''Quand t'es ben tranquille chez vous, à te mêler de tes affaires ...''
* Other paraphrases using ''le monde'', ''les gens'' are more employed when referring to overgeneralisations:
** ''Le monde aime pas voyager dans un autobus plein.''
* As in the rest of la Francophonie, the sound [l] is disappearing in ''il, ils'' among informal registers and rapid speech. More particular to Quebec is the transformation of ''elle'' to [a], sometimes written "a" or "à" in [[eye dialect]] or al [al], and less often {{IPA|[ɛ], [e]}}, sometimes written "è." ''Elle est'' may transform to '''est,''   pronounced {{IPA|[e:]}}.
* Absence of ''elles'' - For a majority of Quebec French speakers, ''elles'' is not used for the third person plural pronoun, at least in the [[nominative case]]; it is replaced with the subject pronoun ''ils'' [i] or the stress/tonic pronoun ''eux(-autres)''. However, '''elles''' is still used in other cases (''ce sont elles qui vont payer le prix'').
* ''-autres'' In informal registers, the stress/tonic pronouns for the plural subject pronouns have the suffix ''–autres'', pronounced {{IPA|[ou̯t]}} and written ''–aut’'' in [[eye dialect]]. ''Nous-autres'', ''vous-autres'', and ''eux-autres'', also found in [[Louisiana French]], are comparable to the [[Spanish language|Spanish]] forms ''nosotros/as'' and ''vosotros/as'', though with different usage and meanings.
