<P> Dialects of the French language are spoken in France and around the world . The francophones of France generally use Metropolitan French ( spoken in Paris and considered standard ) although some also use regional dialects or varieties such as Meridional French . In Europe outside France there are Belgian French , Swiss French , and in Italy Aostan French . In Canada , French is an official language along with English ; the two main dialects of French in Canada are Quebec French and Acadian French , but also another dialect commonly grouped as Canadian French , used by Anglophones speaking French as a second language or by Francophones in Canada using a different dialect . In Lebanon , French was an official language until 1941 and the main dialect spoken there is Lebanese French or Levantine French . Note that the discussion here refers to varieties of the French language , not to the Romance sister languages ( sometimes considered dialects ) of French spoken in France ( e.g. Picard , Limousin , Gascon , etc. ; for these languages see : Langues d'oïl , Francoprovençal , Occitan and languages of France ) . See also French - based creole languages , which are also considered separate languages . </P>
