Bonsoir. Is the following how I would introduce my wife Catherine to someone: "Je vous presente mon femme Catherine." I would like to make sure the grammar is correct. Any help on this would be appreciated. Merci.

Merci. I have an additional question. I know that the pronunciation of Richard and Catherine is different in French than in English. This being the case, should I use the French pronunciation in Quebec or does it matter? Any help will be appreciated. Merci.

Bonjour Geminiguy, If you are presenting in French, then use the French pronunciation for Richard and Catherine so that the language or sentence remains fluid. However, if you prefer the English pronunciation then of course you may do so as well. J'éspère que cela vous aide! - I hope this helps! - Marie-Claire
