摘要：In her article the author presents problems of identity encountered by Acadian students that originate from their relative degree of linguistic isolation. Social circumstances of Acadian-speaking persons in the Atlantic Provinces (especially in New Brunswick) comprise : the degree of contact with external varieties of French, the degree of contact with varieties of English, the availability of schooling in French, the use of French in a working environment. All these aspects offer a chance of teaching languages in multilingual societies. The author shows that social interrelationships within the community and within universities also play a significant role in the maintenance of the minority language and culture.
