The term parallels English Canadian Anglophone and Francophone , which designate people whose mother tongues are English and French, respectively. Note that native speakers of Indigenous languages of the Americas United States.2C Canada and Greenland aboriginal languages are generally not treated as allophones. Origin of term The word allophone is formed from the Greek language Greek roots allos , meaning other , and phone , meaning sound or voice . The term became popularized during the Quiet Revolution as French Canadian society in Quebec sought to integrate immigrants, most of whom had traditionally integrated into the English speaking Quebecers English speaking community . As integrating immigrants was deemed essential to assure the survival of French speaking Quebec in light of plummeting birth rates, demographers devised this category to monitor the integration of immigrants into French and English speaking communities. Because allophones often adopt English, French or both languages at home or learn one language before another, they can be grouped into English or French communities based on home language or first official language learned.
