French Facts

French is spoken by about 175 million people all around the world as a mother tongue or fluent second language

France is one of few countries worldwide to boast an official linguistic governing body, the Académie Française, whose goal is the constant purification and preservation of the French language

Unlike Latin (but much like most other Romance languages), French has only two grammatical genders (masculine and feminine), and uses auxiliary verbs to form some tenses

Wakefield

A city in West Yorkshire, Wakefield has a population of around 80,000. As a centre for cloth dealing during the medieval period, the city matured as a stalwart of glass production. Nowadays it is distinctive for its prisons, the National Coal Mining Museum for England, and its relatively large proportion of council housing. It's not all doom and gloom, though - the city plays host to many pub crawls due to large amounts of pubs in certain areas of the city; as well as an annual Rhubarb Festival!
