KLT

The KLT , abbreviation of Kerne-Leon-Treger (in French: Cornwall - Leon - Trégor, name of three évêchés of Low-Brittany before the creation of the French Departments), is one of the two principal forms of Breton language. Without being really a Dialect nor a Language, it is the linguistic Continuum corresponding to the one of both common languages native of the country.

KLT is also an orthographical standard created by a convention of writers (Vallée, Perrot,…) in 1908 for the évêchés dialects from these three, relatively close dialects (having jointly a tonic accent strongly marked on the penultimate syllable, inter alia, contrary to the vannetais, the fourth dialect and the other common language). An agreement with the writers vannetais for a single standard had been considered, but had not been able to succeed.

Another orthographical standard will be proposed in 1911 (introduction of the zh ) and 1936 and gradually accepted in 1941 and 1942, called KLTG, including the dialect vannetais ( G wenedeg) which replaced that of the KLT (see Orthographe of Breton the).
