Francization or Francisation, also known as Frenchification, is the expansion of French language use—either through willful adoption or coercion—by more and more social groups who had not before used the language as a common means of expression in daily life. As a linguistic concept, known usually as gallicization or gallicisation, it is the practice of modifying foreign words, names, and phrases to make them easier to spell, pronounce, or understand in French.
