French is a language which evolved from vulgar Latin (mainly). There are numerous European languages sharing that origin and old French itself had two mainstream varieties, the langue d'Oil (roughly northern nowadays France) and the langue d'Oc (roughly the southern half of France). The two varieties were close, and a speaker of any of the two could undertand main lines of the others' language.
Eventually the northern strand subsided and formed the major part of modern French.
Harvey Schowalter
The French language evolved from Latin, which was spoken in modern-day France during the Roman Empire. Over time, Latin transformed into Old French, which eventually developed into the French language we know today.
