A Speaking Atlas of Indigenous Languages of France and its Overseas

Abstract

The objective of this work is to show and valorise the linguistic diversity of France through recordings collected in the field, a computer interface (which allows viewing the dialect areas) and a work of orthographic transcription. We briefly describe a website (https://atlas.limsi.fr) presenting interactive maps of France and its overseas territories, from which the Aesop fable “The North Wind and the Sun” can be listened to and read in over 300 versions, in indigenous languages. There is thus a scientific and heritage dimension in this work, insofar as a number of regional or minority languages are in a critical situation.
