For the past few years, several French Quebec guides for French-speaking tourists have appeared on bookstore shelves and appear to be having a significant sales success based on the number of their reissues. These works are perfect witnesses of folk lexicography, that is, of the description of the language by non-specialists. This article has three objectives: first, to present five recent guides and their authors; second, to study the arguments put forward to explain to tourists the distinct relationship of Quebeckers to English; thirdly, to analyze, from a more lexicographical angle, the treatment accorded in these guides to a certain number of Anglicisms.
