| yesterday | comment | added | Themoonisacheese | @user2705196 fair enough, i'll remove that part. my rationale was that because the word is new, the quebecois and the french were already separated when both "chose" which word to use to call association football. | |
| yesterday | comment | added | user2705196 | The term soccer is an abbreviation of the football game played under the rules of the Football Association to distinguish it from the game played under the rules of Rugby Football. So the usage of the word soccer by the Quebecois has nothing to do with the non-existence of codified football rules when their ancestors left for the New World. The term soccer only appeared in the 1880s specifically to distinguish two differently codified rules of the game en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_for_association_football | |
