“Ce n’est pas un dialecte du français” : la langue wallonne ressurgit de l’oubli
Parlé par 80 % des habitants de la Wallonie dans les années 1920, le wallon a dramatiquement régressé, cantonné aux campagnes de cette région de Belgique… et à quelques poches dans l’État américain du Wisconsin. Ces derniers temps, les efforts se multiplient pour éviter sa disparition.
Voilà qu'après le Brussels Times, De Standaard se fend d'un excellent article sur la langue wallonne ! 🤯
Et toujours aucun signe de réveil de la part des grands médias belges francophones. Vont-il enfin s'emparer du sujet, ou les prochains articles de qualité émaneront de @lemonde ou de @letemps ?

For decades a unit of Spanish military gained presence in deeds of our ancestors:
"Tercios" In fact majority of its soldiers were not Castilians but #Walloon and #Italian #Mercs
Although Spanish Crown paid good salaries, it always did so late, mainly coz in time of Felipe II, several bankruptcies were declared.Being cynical, Putin seized the cash van,advance of Wagner's mercenaries ended.
