“les descendants”

Hi,

“les descendants” is a noun, so should the translation be more along the lines of “the French-Canadian descendants of those original colonists”?

“ By popular demand, more interesting facts about French.”

Just a small typo here. It of course should be “about France” or “about the French”.

It is about French, the language, and the English translates correctly from the French title. Apart from the “by popular demand” part, that is!

“The French” would be les Français. La France is not the title topic either.
