=== Jewish dialects === Occitan has 3 dialects spoken by Jewish communities that are all now extinct. ==== Judeo-Gascon ==== A [[sociolect]] of the Gascon dialect spoken by [[Spanish and Portuguese Jews]] in [[Gascony]].<ref>{{Cite journal |date=2018 |title=Notes on Contributors |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.5840/clrjames2018241/267 |journal=The CLR James Journal |volume=24 |issue=1 |pages=353–355 |doi=10.5840/clrjames2018241/267 |issn=2167-4256}}</ref> It, like many other Jewish dialects and languages, contained large amounts of [[Hebrew language|Hebrew]] loanwords.<ref>{{Citation |last=Costandi |first=Moheb |title=Persönlichkeit |date=2015 |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-662-44191-6_18 |work=50 Schlüsselideen Hirnforschung |pages=68–71 |access-date=2023-12-17 |place=Berlin, Heidelberg |publisher=Springer Berlin Heidelberg |doi=10.1007/978-3-662-44191-6_18 |isbn=978-3-662-44190-9}}</ref> It went extinct after [[World War II|World War 2]] with the last speakers being elderly Jews in [[Bayonne]]. About 850 unique words and a few morphological and grammatical aspects of the dialect were transmitted to Southern Jewish French.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Judeo-Provençal |url=https://www.jewishlanguages.org/judeo-provencal |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170817181038/http://www.jewish-languages.org/judeo-provencal.html |archive-date=17 August 2017 |access-date=2023-12-17 |website=Jewish Languages |language=en}}</ref> ==== Judeo-Provençal ==== [[Judeo-Provençal]] was a dialect of Occitan spoken by Jews in [[Provence]]. The dialect declined in usage after Jews were expelled from the area in 1498, and was probably extinct by the 20th century. ==== Judeo-Niçard ==== The least attested of the Judeo-Occitan dialects, Judeo-Niçard was spoken by the community of Jews living in [[Nice]], who were descendants of Jewish immigrants from Provence, Piedmont, and other Mediterranean communities. Its existence is attested from a few documents from the 19th century. It contained significant influence in both vocabulary and grammar from Hebrew.<ref name=":0" /> ==== Southern Jewish French ==== All three of these dialects have some influence in Southern Jewish French, a dialect of French spoken by Jews in southern France. Southern Jewish French is now estimated to only be spoken by about 50–100 people.<ref name=":0" />
