About the French Language
French is a Romance code initially spoken in France, Belgium, Luxembourg and Switzerland, and now by about 350 million folks all over the world as either a native or perhaps a 2nd code, with extensive populations in 54 nations. French is a descendant of the Latin of the Roman Empire, because are languages like Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, Catalan and Romanian. Its development was furthermore influenced by the native Celtic languages of Roman Gaul and by the Germanic code of the post-Roman Frankish invaders.
It is an official code in 31 nations, almost all of which shape what exactly is called in French La Francophonie, the community of French-speaking countries. It is an official code of all United Nations agencies along with a big amount of global companies. French is created utilizing the 26 letters of the Latin alphabet, plus five diacritics (the circumflex highlight, acute highlight, grave highlight, diaeresis, and cedilla) and the 2 ligatures (œ) and (æ). French spelling, like English spelling, seems to maintain obsolete pronunciation rules. This really is mostly due to extreme phonetic changes since the Old French period, without a corresponding change in spelling. Moreover, some aware changes were produced to restore Latin orthography:
* Old French doit > French doigt "finger" (Latin digitum)
* Old French pie > French pied "foot" (Latin pedem)
As a outcome, it's difficult to predict the spelling found on the basis of the sound alone. Final consonants are quiet, except when the following word starts with a vowel. As an example, all of these words end in a vowel sound: pied, aller, les, finit, beaux. The same words followed by a vowel, nonetheless, might sound the consonants, as they do in these examples: beaux-arts, les amis, pied-à-terre. On the alternative hand, a provided spelling can virtually constantly cause a predictable sound, and the Académie française functions difficult to enforce and update this correspondence. In certain, a provided vowel combination or diacritic predictably leads to 1 phoneme.The diacritics have phonetic, semantic, and etymological importance.
