3 Canadian slang

Here are three examples of Canadian slang:

  1. “Eh”: This is perhaps one of the most well-known Canadian slang words. It’s often used at the end of sentences to seek agreement or to invite others to join in the conversation. For example: “It’s a beautiful day, eh?”

  2. “Toque”: In Canada, a “toque” refers to a knitted winter hat, often worn to keep warm during the cold winters. For instance: “I need to grab my toque before heading outside.”

  3. “Double-double”: This term is commonly used at Tim Hortons, a popular Canadian coffee and fast-food chain. A “double-double” refers to a coffee with two creams and two sugars. You might hear someone say: “Can I get a medium double-double, please?”

These slang terms are just a glimpse into the unique linguistic culture of Canada. Learning and using these phrases can help you connect with Canadians and immerse yourself in the local language.
