Landese (Maritime Gascon, or parlar negre, which means "black speech" in English) is a dialect of the Gascon language, spoken in the south-west part of Landes of Gascony, part of Chalosse and around Bayonne (Aquitaine, metropolitan France). Landese is an endangered dialect as are several other Occitan languages.

Reorganization of vowel phonemes

[edit]

The main feature of Landese is its propensity to pronounce certain vowels with more roundedness (and if necessary, in a more closed or more centralized manner). Thus there is a migration of phonemes from the general Gascon to new phonemes in Landese.

Works

[edit]

The poet, novelist and essayist Bernat Manciet (1923 - 2005) remained faithful to the local Gascon speaking of his native Landes region where he lived a large part of his life.

The erudite Vincent Foix (1857 - 1932) has written a dictionary[1] on the Gascon from Chalosse and other parts of Landes.
