About the Picard Language

Picard is the language traditionally spoken in Northern France, in the Picardy and Nord-Pas de Calais regions, and also in the Belgian province of Hainaut.

In the Nord-Pas de Calais area, Picard is often improperly called Chtimi (or Chti). It's a language of Oïl, as are standard French, Normand and Champenois.

A Note From Mama Lisa...

I always welcome new contributions of traditional kids songs, nursery rhymes and folk songs. Please CLICK HERE to email Mama Lisa if you are interested and write "New Song" as the subject of the email.

Also, if anyone would like to sing any of these songs in the original language, or play any of the tunes on an instrument, I would love to post a recording on Mama Lisa's World. You could send me an audio cassette or you could record it directly onto the computer and email it to me. Remember... you don't have to be a professional singer or musician to contribute!
