Le traitement métalexicographique des anglicismes au Québec, de 1988 à 2015

This article aims for a critical thinking of francophone linguistic norms in Quebec (Canada) concerning anglicisms. In this lexicographical study of forewords and a selection of representative anglicisms of Quebecers’ usage, I examine three non-differential francophone dictionaries from the province of Quebec (Le Dictionnaire du Français Plus à l’usage des francophones d’Amérique (1988); Le Dictionnaire québécois d’aujourd’hui (1992); Usito (2015) and one from France (Le Nouveau Petit Robert 2014 online). I show how little francophone linguistic norms in Quebec have changed in the past twenty years and I also demonstrate how dictionaries from Quebec imitate the French linguistic norms. This research ultimately shows the contemporary norms of Quebec concerning anglicisms.
