  •  Picard
  • Picard is a Gallo-Roman language closely related to French or a northern Oïl language . It is spoken in France in Picardy , the Artois , in the Romance part of French Flanders and in Belgium in western Wallonia .

    In the Picardy region, people speak of Picardy . In Flanders and Artois, on the other hand, the terms chti and chtimi and in the area around Lille and Valenciennes Rouchi are used, even if in Flanders one usually only speaks of patois . Linguists only use the term Picard. All of these terms are synonymous.

    status

    The French Community of Belgium has in 1990 Picard, as well as Walloon , lothringisch , Champenois and Francique as a regional language recognized.

    The French state did not recognize Picardy in this way (in line with its policy of only recognizing French as the official language on its territory), even if some opinions consider Picardy as a separate language from French.

    The Picardy still benefits from the Délégation Générale à la Langue Française et aux Langues de France of the Ministry of Culture.
