Professional French translation services from Lingovo
French is a Romance language within the Indo-European language family. It is an official language in more than 25 countries and, alongside Mandarin, English, Hindi, Spanish and Arabic, one of the most widely spoken languages in the world. It is spoken well beyond Europe, including widely in parts of North America, Africa and Oceania.
As well as in France, Belgium, Luxembourg and parts of Canada and Switzerland, French is spoken in Equatorial Guinea, Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Djibouti, Ivory Coast, Haiti, Cameroon, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Madagascar, Mali, Monaco, Niger, Rwanda, Senegal, the Seychelles, Togo, Chad and Vanuatu. French is also a working language of the European Union, the internal language of the Court of Justice of the European Union and one of the recognised working languages of the United Nations.
French is closely related to Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Romanian. The language family has its origins in what is known as Vulgar Latin, the everyday spoken Latin of the Roman Empire, which became widespread through colonisation. After the fall of the Roman Empire, spoken Latin developed into regional varieties that eventually gave rise to today’s Romance languages.
