From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Cajun, a variant of French, is spoken in some parts of Louisiana (that was a colony of France from 1682 to 1762, then, part of Spain (1762-1803) and finally, USA). There are French Canadian settlers in parts of northern New England, as well. More than 13 million Americans declare to have French ancestors, but only 1.5 million speak that language.
