French Language History
The French language (Français) is a member of the Romance group of the
Italic subfamily of the Indo-European family of languages (see Romance
languages). It is spoken as a first language by more than 70
million people, chiefly in France (55 million speakers), Belgium (3
million), Switzerland (1.5 million), former French and Belgian
colonies in Africa (5 million), and Canada (6.5 million).
French
probably ranks next after English as a second tongue. Having served
as an international language in diplomacy and commerce as well as
among educated people during the last few centuries, it still enjoys
great prestige culturally and is one of the languages used
officially by the United Nations. French is spoken in over 43 countries in the world.
