Lorrain, at the east among other oïl languages

It is classified as a regional language of France and has the recognised status of a regional language of Wallonia, where it is known as Gaumais.[2] It has been influenced by Lorraine Franconian and Luxembourgish, West Central German languages spoken in nearby or overlapping areas.[citation needed]

Features

edit

Linguist Stephanie Russo noted the difference of a 'second' imperfect and pluperfect tense between Lorrain and Standard French.[4] It is derived from Latin grammar that no longer is used in modern French.

Variations

edit

The Linguasphere Observatory distinguishes seven variants :

After 1870, members of the Stanislas Academy in Nancy noted 132 variants of Lorrain from Thionville in the north to Rupt-sur-Moselle in the south, which means that main variants have sub-variants.
