What are the varieties of French?
As one of the 10 most spoken languages in the world, French is widely spoken in regions like Europe, Africa and North America and is the official language of 28 countries.
Out of all the different accents and varieties, Parisian French, namely French spoken in Paris, is often considered the Standard French or International French. One interesting fact about French is that Africa is actually the continent with the most French speakers where French is often used alongside indigenous languages.
Did you know?
The Brisbane French Festival is Australia's largest French festival. Some of French Australians refer to themselves as Huguenots.
Before the French Revolution, French was not popularly used across France. As a matter of fact, French was actually used more in Holland and Germany than in France until the 19th Century. Isn’t this surprising?
Interestingly enough, French did heavily influence modern English. Around 30% of modern English words are from French! An example can be found in the use of culinary words. Words like chef, blanching, sautéing and julienne all originated from French.
