The way the English talk. Bothering details

I'm not English. But then neither is "Quebec". My impression was always that the correct French pronunciation was, basically, "Kebec".

I live in Quebec, and yes, it is pronounced something like "Kebec" in French, but Canada is a bilingual country so as a Canadian anglophone I can also tell you that the English population does not usually adopt the French pronounciation. Even the English population in Quebec itself.

Hmm... I've been thinking about it more. Acutally, I think the pronounciation in French is more like "Kay-bec", whereas in English we say something like "K'bec". I tried saying something like "Qwe-bec" to myself and it just doesn't sound right. So maybe the people at BBC have it right afterall.

I'd feel pretty silly pronouncing quiche with a qw.

When I was living in Canada, I seem to remember the broadcasters on CBC would stick to the French pronunciation.

As for all the others, I've never heard those pronunciations before, and I've lived in England most of my life.

As some of you know my mother tongue is Persian. Because of historical reasons, which mostly has to do with the first Iranian students going abroad to France in the 18th century, most of European words, and especially the human scince terms, are pronounced in Persian with their French pronounciation. So to me Cuebec "originaly" sounds as "kebec."
But then when I began to learn English I had a hard time to adapt my ear to the English pronounciation of the words which already been part of my mother toung. So what I hear (especialy in American accent) is "kyubec." and the U is pronounced the same as the U in Cuba the way Americans pronounce it.

while i am speaking pronounce is wrong

I love the name Joachim

In fact it was Kebec before it was Quebec the Q spelling came about when New France was handed over to the British at the end of the Seven Years War.
Also Canada and the concept of being Canadian was a Francophone invention by the colonialists who told their cousins in France and the rulers of New French to stop calling them French and call them Canadian instead. Long before British rule it was ordinary Francophone people who invented the concept of Canadian.

Kébec in Algonquian means "place where the river narrows".
