  • Il dialetto tendasco (ar dialetu tendascu) parlato da chi ancora lo parla, è un dialetto (a differenza del Limonese che è una variante provenzale) di chiaro stampo ligure/alpino. Usi e costumi dei veri tendaschi sono altrettanto. Liguri delle alte valli confinanti e tendaschi si sono sempre capiti benssimo parlando dialetto. (Triora-Pigna-Mendatica ecc..) Per noi liguri è molto piu' familiare che non l'ormeasco , che pure è anch'esso una particolare variante ligure.-

  • Very nice region Abruzzo!

    Very nice country Australia too!

    Who knows... see you! :-))

  • Thanks for your answers Bestiaccia. Im from Australia but of Italian background (Abruzzo), so I regularly go to Italy, who knows might catch you in Tende one day.

  • I didn't grow up in Tende. My grandmother refused to become French, so she went to Turin. She wanted to raise her child in Italy, because he couldn't cope at school with his new French teacher.

    I consider Tende as "my village", but we only spent the week-ends and the holidays there. I still have family there. The old ones still speak Italian between them. But they speak French to their grand children.

  • The new generations feel French because of the school. After the age of 16 they have to go to Nice if they want to study; and then University has to be in France.

  • OOOOH!! The world cup final is hysterical!

    There are some Tendasques who still are pro Italian, and others who have always been for the French, since 1947 (sometimes it's a family thing).

    So you can imagine the tension during a World cup. :o)

  • That is sad. Do the older generations feel French or more Italian? im guessing that the younger generations feel French? Who did the Tendasci go for in the world cup final? haha. So when Tende was handed to france after the war, was the town still Italian speaking? Did you study it at school? thanks for you answers. I must visit tende someday.

  • The older ones speak Italian and Tendasco (the local dialect). The new generations speak French.

    In some years time Tendasco will be forgotten and Italian no longer spoken. :-(

  • do people in Tende still speak any Italian or is it just French now?

  • Thank you for posting!

    I'm from Tende :-))
