DESCRIPTION:

French is the second most studied language in the world with its speakers referred to as Francophonie. Francophonie Day went from a single day to a week in 2017 and changed its name to National French Week or International Francophonie Week.

The term 'francophonie' was coined by French essayist Onésime Reclus in 1880 as he was trying to describe the geographic areas of the world where French is spoken.

The International Day of Francophonie will be celebrated by about half a billion Francophones worldwide.

This event began in 1998 as a way for the then-49 members of La Francophonie to celebrate their bond via the French language. French is often described as the language of love, and there was a time when French was the most widely spoken language on earth, and it continues to be the unofficial second language of diplomacy. Oui, oui!
