Auvergnat (/ˌoʊvɛrnˈjɑː/;[4] French pronunciation: [ovɛʁɲa] ⓘ) or Occitan auvergnat[5] (endonym: auvernhat [6]) is a northern dialect of Occitan spoken in central and southern France, in particular in the former administrative region of Auvergne.
Currently, research shows that there is not really a true Auvergnat dialect but rather a vast northern Occitan linguistic area. The word "Auvergnat" is above all a local historiographical creation.[7][8] According to linguist Jean Roux, "It is by simplification that we use this term, because in no case Auvergnat can be considered as an autonomous linguistic entity".[9]
With around 80,000 speakers in the Auvergne region at the beginning of the 21st century, it is considered to be severely endangered.
