Corsican is in the
Tuscan group of Italian varieties. Southern Corsican is closer to
northern Sardinian or Gallurese than other Corsican dialects (R.
A. Hall, Jr.) Dialects of Bastia, Venaco, Vico, and Sartene have
79% to 89% lexical similarity. Bonifacio on the southern tip of
the island has 78% lexical similarity (highest) with Bastia at
extreme north. Ajaccio dialect is central and prestigious.
Speakers are bilingual in French but many are not fluent in it.
There is a movement for bilingual education. Corsican has been
recognized as a separate language by the French government. Not
endangered. Bible portions 1861-1994.
