TIL : France's government was funding some project to standardize orthography and grammar of the Alsatian language and since it's a French government project ... The final Orthal guide was of course written in French only 🤦🏽.

French constitution 1, European Union 0 : > In 1999 the Socialist government of Lionel Jospin signed the Council of Europe's European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages, but it was not ratified. The Constitutional Council of France declared that the Charter contains unconstitutional provisions since the Constitution states that the language of the Republic is French. #Alsace #JustAlsaceThings
