I think garçon could be used bcs my parents call over the waiters saying joven which means young boy in Spanish and they say it no matter how old they are but maybe that’s just my family’s Mexican culture

My first French teacher was this young woman from france and she taught us “quelle heure il est?” My friends in the other classes told me it was wrong

something else to take into account: most people look at you weird (at least here in Quebec) if you use the plural "vous" to speak to a person.

My French textbook had "Zut" and "Zut alors" my French friends made fun of me to no end for saying this.

I think comme ci comme ca is still used more commonly in Canada. I work in a French school with French speaking French Canadian teachers and hear it

Alde (they/them penguin)🌈♾ :
I feel like "comme ci comme ça" is the equivalent of us being told to use "so-so" as a response to "how are you doing"

I was always told the French that we learn in school (in the US) is the very formal/traditional way, vs conversational. Like hello vs hey/hi

In my understanding you’d probably only say ça va mal if your house just burned down or you totaled your car

It’s the same problem as learning any language: you learn the “proper” way, not the common/colloquial way to speak

Mon prof m’a appris « bien ou quoi? » qui veut dire simplement « ça va » (la réponse est toujours « tranquille »), c’est commun de dire ça?

I hope to ease your conscience by letting you know that I was never taught “garçon” unironically and the other two have been out of circulation-

also the opposite of this experience is me learning a lot of Welsh by moving to Caernarfon and then having to formalize my language later on bc

this was always the most frustrating part of learning another language in school we learn all the formal structure and little of the casual
