Chiac (or Chiak, Chi’aq), is a patois of Acadian French spoken mostly in southeastern New Brunswick, Canada.[1] Chiac is often characterized and distinguished from other forms of Acadian French by its borrowings from English, and is thus often mistakenly considered a form of Franglais.
The word "Chiac" can also sometimes be used to describe an ethnic Acadian of rural southeastern New Brunswick, which are not considered French Canadian historically and ethnically, due to having their separate and distinctive history, they are considered ethnically as "Chiac-Acadian"[2] or simply "Chiac".
