The Corsican language comes from an evolution in Latin. We can think that the language, not traditional and varied that we know today, has gradually been built during the richer history of Corsica. After the new stemming of the romance, he derived from the lack of standardization of Latin, an important moment of the Corsican was the period of the rising tuition in the 9th century. We can say that Tuscan influenza will last until the beginning of French Corsica, at the end of the eighteenth century.

It was then the mother tongue of people up to the sixties when they learned that it was beginning to be replaced by French, even in everyday use.

Nowadays, Corsican is recognized by the regional language of France. That is to say, it does not recognize itself as a statute of official language. But in the meantime, since 1974,  the law of Deixonne gives it the right to be taught.

It's true that we can do even more, but the way of social bilingualism, even straitened and always stiff, seems as good as ever.
