French is a language where M. Hamel would refer to Mr or (Monsieur) Hamel, however it is not the same in English. In English, a name wrote as M. Hamel often refers to the first initial of Mr. Hamel's name.

The name appears in this form, in a story about France by a French author, in English, in an English textbook. So I was asking which of the two ways I should take it as :3
i think you should take it say the French since the author is French even though it's in an English textbook
Okay. Was looking for something solid though.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Answer:
M stands for Monsieur which means the same as Mr. , a part of showing respect in French language. But in English, it can also be seen as an initial for Mr. Hamel's name.
