文化的背景

The transition from 'Et vous ?' to 'Et toi ?' (tutoiement) is a significant social milestone in a relationship. In Quebec, 'tu' and 'toi' are used much more quickly and frequently than in France, even in some service settings. Respect for elders is paramount; using 'Et toi ?' with an older person would be considered very rude.
