cajun phrases

Over three years ago, I wrote a story here on our website about some funny Cajun words and phrases. They were basically French words we use that give us a good chuckle in the way they sound or the meaning behind them.

Some of our favorite cajun slang words have no literal translation, but we love them anyway

I started thinking about all the Cajun words and phrases that I hear that are funny to hear. We asked you and here are the five that I got the most. Hope you enjoy them mes amis!

I bet you know a lot more phrases, words, and sayings that could help a Louisiana transplant not feel so lost in the translation.

Any of us who have lived in south Louisiana more than 15 minutes know how unique of an area it is that we call home. As we become a more homogenized "neck of the woods", I think it's important that we celebrate the things that have and continue to make us special.
