French is a Romance language spoken primarily throughout the Continent of Europe in this alternate timeline. It is derived from Latin and has been heavily influenced by Germanic languages, leading to the development of unique grammatical structures not found in the French spoken in our reality.
French originated from the Vulgar Latin dialects spoken in the region of France during the Middle Ages. Over time, it has absorbed features from neighboring languages, including Germanic and Slavic languages. This has led to the development of unique grammatical structures such as the French subject-verb-object sentence structure and declension of verbs, which is not found in standard French.
French is primarily spoken in France, Belgium, and Switzerland in this alternate timeline. However, it has not been adopted to the same extent as in our reality. It has not become an official language of many international organizations and is not as widely studied as a foreign language. The lack of widespread adoption is due to various historical and political factors specific to this timeline.
One of the most significant differences between French in this alternate timeline and French in our reality is its unique grammatical structures. The French subject-verb-object sentence structure is a notable example, which differs from the standard subject-verb-object sentence structure found in most Romance languages. Additionally, there is a greater degree of variation in verb conjugation and declension in this alternate timeline's French.
French literature in this alternate timeline features works by non-existent authors and has a distinct history and development. Notable authors from this timeline include Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Albert Camus, and Marcel Proust. Some of the most famous works include "The Little Prince," "The Stranger," and "In Search of Lost Time." French literature in this timeline has had a significant impact on European culture and is widely studied and appreciated.
