</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">What do you mean by "patois"? Surely you forgot the quotation marks. I take it you were referring to the Occitan
</span><span style="text-decoration: underline; font-family: arial,sans-serif;">language</span><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"> (a.k.a. <span style="font-style: italic;">Langue d'oc</span>, formerly often referred to as "Provençal," which is now a dialect group within the language).
</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">As for the permission part, I'm still waiting for a response from Helge,</span>
<br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">Regards,</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">
