With me living in the Benelux, it amazes how little I hear and know about Luxembourg. I feel like as someone living in the Netherlands I feel like I still don't know enough about the country, even though I was there for a couple of days last summer
do they even have culture of their own? i always seen them as a belgium larping as another state for tax haven reasons.
They speak their own language called Luxembourgish which developed from a German dialect but it seems they speak French more. When I was in Luxembourg I heard more French. Kind of a shame.
Luxembourgish is basically the dialect they speak in trier but with more french loanwords mixed in - it was constructed post-ww2 for obvious reasons. French is more popular due to the large Portuguese, french and belgian diaspora/commuters, so luxembourgish is only prioritized by like the local right-wing culture war people.
Fun fact its also spoken in Arlon in belgium but is practically extinct there.
Really? I actually know a Luxembourgish song about how refugees should be accepted into Luxembourg. It doesn't seem like it is only prioritized by right wingers

Local people speak it of course, its not as politicized as Ukrainian for example, but its losing ground to French which is spoken by more people. So, the culture war types usually want to enforce it as the sole national language, as the large Portuguese and francophone population refuses to learn it. Similar to how flemish speakers in belgium usally know french better than francophones do dutch/flemish.
