I received an invoice from a hotel in Paris yesterday. On the bottom it said: "Managé par Accor".

I Farking roffled. The French language in France is in a sad state. Riddled with anglicisms.

Difference is that when it's serious (e.g.: legal documents and publications), in Québec French words are used. In France, the English words remain.

I don't get your point about these words. They don't sound nice to your ears or you think its just not french words? Because all of these are directly related to items/stuff from the Church.
