What Exactly Is Southern Cajun?
Southern Cajun, often referred to as Cajun French, is a dialect steeped in history. It evolved from the French spoken by Acadian settlers who were exiled from Canada in the 18th century and found a new home in Louisiana. Mixed with influences from Spanish, Native American languages, and English, Cajun is as rich and diverse as the gumbo you'll find in a Louisiana kitchen. It's playful, musical, and full of phrases that don't just communicate—they tell a story.
