LanguedocienLanguage
The LanguedocienLanguage is an OcLanguage of France. SIL code: LNC. ISO 639-1: oc. ISO 639-2: oci. Population: Fluent speakers are 10% of the population in the region. About 20% more have some knowledge of it. Region: Languedoc Province, from Montpellier to Toulouse, Bordeaux, Rodez, and Albi. Alternate names: LENGADOUCIAN, LANGUEDOC, LANGADOC, OCCITAN, OCCITANI. Dialects: BAS-LANGUEDOCIEN, LANGUEDOCIEN MOYEN, HAUT-LANGUEDOCIEN, GUYENNAIS. Comments: A separate language from Provencal (P. Blanchet 1990). Gascon speakers have limited intelligibility of Languedocien. Everyone speaks French as first or second language. To family and close friends. Mainly spoken in rural communities by people over 50. Attempts to standardize Languedocien for all languages of southern France have not been accepted by speakers of those languages. Attitudes are strong and differ about how different the Oc varieties are from each other. Languedocien resembles most the literary variety of Middle Occitan used in the Troubadours of the Middle Ages. Literacy rate in second language: 99%. Toulouse orthography is different from Ron. Poetry, newspapers. Bible portions 1888.(extract from http://www.ethnologue.com/)
