It is spoken mainly in the southwestern fringes of {{W|Saarland}} in {{W|Germany}}.<br /> <br /> The dialect is named after the town of {{W|Merzig}} and it evolved from the Middle French spoken in the villages around the {{W|Saar}} river. Along with {{W|Walloon}}, it is considered to be one of the most divergent Oïl languages due in part to the ongoing, dominating influence of German culture and dialects and the the region changing hands between several foreign powers.</div>
