Summary "Le français tel que le parlent nos tirailleurs sénégalais" by Anonymous is an instructional publication written during the early 20th century. The book serves as a linguistic guide that aims to teach the French language as used by the Senegalese soldiers, also known as tirailleurs, through the simplification of French syntax and vocabulary to facilitate better communication between European officers and their African troops. The content of the book outlines the specific linguistic features of this unique form of spoken French, often referred to as "petit nègre." It includes clear guidelines on the construction of sentences, the use of vocabulary, and the simplification of grammatical structures tailored to meet the needs of the Senegalese soldiers during military training and operations. Through various examples, the book conveys practical phrases and commands that would be used in a military context, ensuring that European instructors could effectively communicate instructions, commands, and essential information to their troops, thereby enhancing their understanding and performance in combat situations.
