| Summary | "Recueil des expressions vicieuses et des anglicismes les plus fréquents" by Gingras is a linguistic guide published in the early 1860s. The book focuses on common errors and the prevalence of English influences within the French language used in Canada, aiming to raise awareness among French speakers and educators about these concerns. It reflects a patriotic effort to preserve the integrity of the French language in a bilingual context. The content consists of a detailed list of common expressions, anglicisms, and their correct French counterparts, with explanations for why certain usages are considered incorrect or "vicious." The author categorizes various terms and phrases, offering alternatives and emphasizing the importance of using proper French over anglicized versions. By providing these insights, the book serves as both a resource for educators and a call to action for the Francophone community to maintain their linguistic heritage in the face of increasing English influence.
