| has gloss | eng: Colonial Louisiana French (more commonly Colonial French), also known as Plantation Society French, is one of three French dialects traditionally recognized in Louisiana (the others being Cajun French and Louisiana_Creole_French). It is also included in today's definion of Louisiana Regional French . Historically spoken by a part of the Louisiana Creole population, it is generally considered to be nearly extinct today . There are populations of Creoles, and other ethnic groups in the parishes of St. Martin Avoyelles, Iberia, Pointe-Coupée, St. Charles, St. Landry, St. Mary,St. Tammany, Plaquemines, and other parishes south of Orleans, that still speak Colonial French, as opposed to Cajun. White and Native American speakers of Colonial French are often considered by outsiders to belong to Cajun culture, though this classification has not been traditionally welcomed by white Creoles (Brasseaux). |
