Languedocien

Languedocien is a Romance language akin to Provençal spoken by some people in the part of southern France known as Languedoc. Languedocien is a variety of the Occitan language.

About ten percent of the population of Languedoc are fluent in the language, and another 20 percent "have some understanding" of the language. All speak French as their first or second language. Languedocien is used primarily by rural people over age 50.
