Breton language
Breton is a Celtic language spoken in Brittany, a region in northwest France. It is one of the few Celtic languages still actively spoken today, alongside Welsh and Irish. Breton has its roots in the language brought to Brittany by migrating Celts from the British Isles in the early Middle Ages. The language is recognized for its unique phonetics and grammar, and it has faced challenges due to historical suppression and the dominance of French. Efforts are ongoing to revive and promote Breton through education, media, and cultural initiatives, highlighting its importance to regional identity and heritage.
