"The language is not being passed on to children."

ATITUDE DO FALANTE

"Louisiana Creole has long occupied the lowest position on the hierarchy of prestige among language varieties in Louisiana: it was traditionally stigmatized in relation to Louisiana Regional French, which in turn was considered to be deficient or corrupted in relation to Standard French, though such attitudes are changing as these varieties take on growing importance as symbols of Louisiana's distinct francophone heritage."

Census figures that put the number of Louisiana Creole French at just over 6,000 are severely inaccurate. Many speakers of Creole identify themselves as simply French speakers on the census. There has also been a history of discrimination against speakers of Creole, and many are hesitant to identify themselves as speakers of Creole.
