The accents in spoken French that you will hear in Alsace and Lorraine and to a lesser extent in the Vosges, are strongly influenced by German. Alsatian (Elsasser) is a Germanic dialect.

French accents from northeastern France, particularly in regions like Alsace and Lorraine, are influenced by the proximity to German-speaking countries. They may feature sounds resembling the German 'ch' or 'pf', and the rhythm and intonation may have a slightly more Germanic feel compared to standard French. Overall, these accents have a unique blend of French and German sounds that set them apart from accents in other regions of France.
