6 Regional languages
Though French remains the sole official language in French, regional authorities continue to lobby for official recognition of France's main regional languages. A very diverse country, France has a large number of regional languages, many of them used extensively in daily life. The main regional languages are Occitanian (the language of the Midi), Alsatian, Corsican, Catalan, Basque and Flemish. According to an INSEEsurvey of 1999, 786,000 people in France speak Occitanian, 545,000 speak Alsatian, 295,000 speak Breton, 133,000 speak Corsican, and 80,000 speak Basque. However, the proportion of speakers of these languages is always far lower in younger generations, and their survival as daily living languages is not assured - whether or not these langauges acquire official status.In 2008, the French Congress ratified a change in the Constitution, accepting that regional languages are part of France's heritage.Dictionnaire Français-Anglais.
