Paris Talking ( Fr. Parler parisien ) - French speaking ( patois ), characteristic of Paris and its surroundings.
Parisian speaking refers to the French dialect of French, common in the zone of the Parisian basin (Ile-de-France) [1] . developed mainly on the basis of the Ile-de-France dialect. It should be noted that in modern France the differences between the dialects of the French language are insignificant - they are all used as patois (dialects), and in the literature only to give the text a national color.
At present, the concept of "Parisian dialect" implies mainly sociolinguistic features. There are two main accents within it: parigó — the speech of the common people from the and Belleville quarters (called by the French themselves “ ”), and the so-called “bourgeois accent” - speaking 16 districts and Neuilly regions, Passy , . The emphasis of parigo was widespread due to the development of cinema in the 1930-1940s, but recently it has been replaced by youth slangs from the suburbs. The bourgeois emphasis is the speech of the metropolitan educated bourgeoisie. This is due to the fact that Paris is the capital of France, where a large number of educational institutions and national media are concentrated [2] . By virtue of this, the Parisian speaking broadcast by radio and television is widespread both in France itself and in other French-speaking countries , in particular, the French-speaking community of Belgium , where the French media are carefully controlled, which contributes to the averaging of the used French language and dialects [3] .
