Approximately 350 million people around
the world speak French, as a first or second language. It is known as one of
the major Romance Languages; coincidently, it is also considered the most romantic
language in the world. Quebec is the only province in Canada with French as its
only official language. For years, the Quebecois have been fighting to maintain
their language and culture. They were obliged to set laws to prevent English,
which is the most common language of Canada, from taking over and completely
overriding the French language.
