In August I was a student at the University of Western Ontario’s Trois-Pistoles French immersion program.

The everyone from the check out clerks at the grocery store to the bank teller to my host family used bon matin and bon apres-midi.

I’ve been trying to learn French for years and it was the first time I had hear that syntax.
