Jerriais, or Jersey French is to return as the first language of Jersey on March 30th, 2019. The language has not been widely used for close to 100 years, but the home affairs minister said it was ‘the best thing to do’
“It is right that as we are gaining independence, sort of, we should go back to our routes and revive our traditional language. This is the best move for the people of jersey, it will make us more Brexit friendly as the English can’t get their act together.
Jerriais classes will be taught in all parish halls in the evening from January 2nd and will replace all modern language classes in schools.
