This article is about the Romance dialect spoken in the Lorraine region of France. For the Germanic dialect spoken in northern Lorraine, see
Lorraine Franconian .
Lorrain is a language (often referred to as patois ) spoken by now a minority of people in Lorraine in France , small parts of Alsace and in Gaume in Belgium.[3 ] It is a langue d'oïl .
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 :
Argonnais (Argonne , Woëvre , eastern French Ardennes , Meuse , Meurthe-et-Moselle )
Longovician (Longwy , Longuyon , northern Meurthe-et-Moselle)
Gaumais (arrondissement of Virton , cantons of Montmédy and Stenay in Meuse and the canton of Carignan in Ardennes)
Messin (Metz , Metzgau and all of French-speaking Moselle )
Nancéien (Nancy , southern Meurthe-et-Moselle)
Spinalian (Épinal , central Vosges )
Deodatian (Saint-Dié , Hautes-Vosges)
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.
