Friulan is a regional language pertaining to a rhaeto-romance linguistic group particularly widespread in the historic Friuli-Venezia Giulia region. Friulan, as other 11 linguistic italian communities, is approved by a national law besides two regional laws that control protection and promotion. Its diffusion, the number of speakers, its history, its literature prestige and its statute of an independent Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, make it possible for this language to still be used by a wide range of population. However several sociolinguistic studies done since 1977, approximate a 1% annual loss of speakers. In order to give a contribution to register the current figures and formulate possible proposals to contrast such loss, in this article we illustrate the results of a recent research regarding the social representation of the language and the friulans identity performed on a population of students ranging from the age of 14 to the age of 18. Our research has adopted the Combined Analysis Method.

Abstract
Friulan is a regional language pertaining to a rhaeto-romance linguistic group particularly widespread in the historic Friuli-Venezia Giulia region. Friulan, as other 11 linguistic italian communities, is approved by a national law besides two regional laws that control protection and promotion. Its diffusion, the number of speakers, its history, its literature prestige and its statute of an independent Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, make it possible for this language to still be used by a wide range of population. However several sociolinguistic studies done since 1977, approximate a 1% annual loss of speakers. In order to give a contribution to register the current figures and formulate possible proposals to contrast such loss, in this article we illustrate the results of a recent research regarding the social representation of the language and the friulans identity performed on a population of students ranging from the age of 14 to the age of 18. Our research has adopted the Combined Analysis Method.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
