I once read that there are 3000 French words who are only in use in Belgium. I can't find anything about this on
Google. The tread doesn't exist on the forum. Can someone give me a hint? J'ai lu qu'il y a +/- 3000 mots français qu'on employe seulement en Belgique. Je n'ai pas pu trouver des informations concernant ce cas sur internet. Qui peut m'aider? Merci d'avance! Edited by staf250 on 16 July 2009 at 7:48pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I dunno if there are three thousand but there's a fair few:

ExtraLean, thanks. This is exactly what I was looking for.
Merci bien, il me faudra bien quelques heures pour lire tout! Et les "mots Belges" s'appellent des belgicismes, évidemment comme nous connaissons dans le Néerlandais des Germanismes et des anglicismes. Edited by staf250 on 16 July 2009 at 9:33pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I find the speech tempo of Belgian French a little slower than Parisian French, making it easier to understand.
