Alsace Pop 1992 #575

Closed Liegnitz closed 8 years ago

Liegnitz commented 8 years ago

There should be still a German Majority in Strasbourg and Colmar.

simsulla commented 8 years ago

Do you have a reference, for number of % German speakers in Elsass in the 1990s? My understanding is that the number is dwindling.

Liegnitz commented 8 years ago

It was dwindling yes, but since new bilingual schools were opened, more people embrace the old German dialect again. A survey of the "Office pour la Langue et Culture d’Alsace" said that in 2001, 61 % of the Alsacien people said they are able to speak alsacien perfectly, in 1997 it were 63 %. In 2012 a survey said that at least 76 % of the Alsacien people are able to communicate with it. So in 1946 & 1991 the amount of Germans there needs to be higher. source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elsass#Sprachen_und_Dialekte
