Everyday French Phrases for Life in Montréal

Montréal runs on both French and English, but speaking French — even a little — changes how conversations go: at the dépanneur, on the STM, and in most workplaces. Here's a working set of phrases organized by situation, with what they mean and when to use them.

Grocery store (épicerie)

French	English
Où sont les légumes?	Where are the vegetables?
C'est combien?	How much is this?
Avez-vous des promotions?	Is anything on sale?
Je paie par carte.	I'll pay by card.

Metro and transit (STM)

French	English
Où est la station de métro?	Where is the metro station?
Un aller simple, s'il vous plaît.	One single ticket, please.
Excusez-moi, je descends ici.	Excuse me, I'm getting off here.
C'est loin d'ici?	Is it far from here?

Tim Hortons / coffee counter

French	English
Un café double-double, s'il vous plaît.	A double-double coffee, please.
Pour manger ici ou pour emporter?	For here or to go? (what the cashier asks you)
Une beigne à l'érable, s'il vous plaît.	A maple donut, please.

Pharmacy and doctor

French	English
J'ai besoin d'un rendez-vous.	I need an appointment.
Je suis allergique à...	I'm allergic to...
Pouvez-vous répéter, s'il vous plaît?	Can you repeat that, please?

Bank

French	English
Je voudrais ouvrir un compte.	I'd like to open an account.
J'ai perdu ma carte.	I lost my card.
Quels sont vos horaires?	What are your hours?

Common mistakes to avoid

Memorizing the phrase but not the reply — "C'est combien?" is easy; understanding the number that comes back takes separate listening practice.
Over-preparing for formal French when most of these exchanges are quick and informal — cashiers and transit staff usually keep it short.
Skipping "Pouvez-vous répéter, s'il vous plaît?" — it's one of the most useful sentences you can know, and nobody will mind you using it.

Try it today

Pick one section above — say, the metro table — and use every phrase in it on your next trip, even if you stumble. If you'd rather rehearse first, practice a Montréal life scenario like the dépanneur or the metro with an AI partner before you try it for real.
