Glad to meet you all btw

Hi, what is Walloon? I've never heard of that before? Also, I've always wondered. Is Belgium completely French, or are there some places that speak another language?

Hi Hayde,

Walloon is a language spoken in the south of Belgium. It's often considered as a dialect of French. Personally, I don't think it is a dialect. Walloon is a very informal language that is sometimes spoken between members of a family etc. Not many people speak it. It's not even worth learning it if you plan to go to Belgium.

To answer your second question, we have three official languages here in Belgium (French in the south, Dutch in the north and German in the east). Most people speak either French or Dutch.
