Piedmontese<\/span><\/span><\/h2>

The Piedmontese language includes varieties spoken in a wide vertical belt in the central part of the Piedmont region. Among these, the most prominent is the variety spoken in Turin. This regional <\/span>koine<\/span><\/i>, commonly referred to as \u201cPiedmontese\u201d, has spread not only to major centres (such as Ivrea, Lanzo Torinese, Susa, Pinerolo, Dronero, and Cuneo), but also to the communities of Occitan<\/a> and Francoproven\u00e7al<\/a> speakers. In contrast, its role in the northeast (Lombard<\/a>) and southeast (Ligurian) is more limited. Other significant varieties include <\/span>Alto Piemontese<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>Monferrino<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>Alessandrino<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>Langarolo<\/span><\/i> (including <\/span>Monregalese<\/span><\/i>), <\/span>Canavese<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>Biellese<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>Vercellese<\/span><\/i>, and <\/span>Valsesiano<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is estimated that there are about 700,000 Piedmontese speakers, mostly in rural areas, small towns, and villages.<\/span><\/p>\n

Piedmontese has a long literary history dating back to the 1500s with the works of Giovan Giorgio Alione in the dialect of Asti. It also features a rich lexicographic documentation, mainly focused on the Turin variety.<\/span><\/p>\n
