Mildly OT: > He called the colony Quebec, a name derived from the Algonquin word kébec, meaning “where the river narrows.” As someone born but not raised in Quebec, I had never heard this before. As someone mildly but frequently peeved by the mispronunciation “kwubec” I have heard so many, many times, I am happy to have another tool in the toolbox to explain how it is actually pronounced (which is basically how you’d pronounce the Algonquin spelling used in the quote above)
