Bonjour, je m'appelle, Mike ou également Mich'. Je suis franco-américain, c'est-à-dire franco-français, pas franco-cadien. Tant pis pour mois, eh? Mais j'en reste fier quand même et fier de notre langue commune. (Apprendre parler le cadien, ça sera une belle chose!) J'apprends jouer l'accordéon (cadien, bien sûr), et c'est tout pour l'instant.
Hi, I'm Mike or Mich'. I'm Franco-American, meaning Franco-from-France, not Franco-Cajun. Too bad for me, huh? But I'm still proud of it and of our shared language. (Learning to speak Cajun, that would be a beautiful thing!) I'm learning to play the accordion (Cajun, of course), and that's all for now.
Etiquette question: is it preferred to post in English here?

Can anyone tell me how one starts a new topic/search???? I am not what one would call, "Computer person" since I don't know much about them. But, I like Cajun sites. I would like to post something, and have searched the site without learning much of anything. Thanks.

Hi, mrrhum. I would imagine English is the preferred language, though I don't know for sure. But I know just enough Cajun French to get by. Working on learning more. My name is Mary. I'm originally from the Eunice/Mamou area in Louisiana. My grandfather was a well-known fiddle player and singer in his day. Unfortunately, he died almost 30 years ago. I started the website in my signature partly in his memory. :D Anyone else here from the Eunice/Mamou area?

Anaïs and Didier are very French names. I don't know any Anaïses, but I have a good friend in France named Didier. I've known Didier since he was a baby! --Mike
