Translation of the classic into a language of the ‘Croissant’. These are traditionally spoken in central France, on the northern edge of the Massif Central. As part of the Gallo-Roman language family, they exhibit characteristics of both Occitan (Limousin or Auvergnat) and the langues d'oïl (French, Berrichon, Bourbonnais or Poitevin-Saintongeais). This dialect is spoken in a small village in the Vienne department.
More about the language
The 'Croissant' (so named due to its crescent-shaped geographical distribution) is a linguistic transition zone in central France. The patois spoken there mix features of northern French Oïl languages with southern French Occitan. All varieties are now severely endangered.
