Best Answer

English with French being the second most spoken language in the home.
The vast majority speak English, as NH is the second most Caucasian state in the country. A significant amount of New Hampshirites are also French speakers, making French the second most spoken language here. French speakers tend to speak with a Quebecois dialect, whereas in Maine there are many Acadian-French speakers. There is a high concentration of Francophones in the NH North Country, Les Grands Bois du Nord, as well as in the Cities of Manchester and Nashua. Although the amount of francophones in New Hampshire has declined as a percentage per capita, many people still use many French words like referring to grandparents as Memere and Pepere (pronounced MEM-may and PEP-pay), or calling slippers Pichous (pronounced: PEE-shoes).
