French term

responsabilité patrimoniale

French to English Social Sciences Linguistics langues régionales françaises
Voici la phrase dans laquelle se trouve cette expression:
"Les langues non-territoriales illustrées, comme le (r)romani et la langue des signes française (LSF) sont celles envers lesquelles l'État reconnaît avoir une responsabilité patrimoniale."
Le lien est le suivant: https://atlas.limsi.fr/?tab=Hexagone

JE comprends que l'Etat reconnait avoir une responsabilité culturelle (héritage culturel) vis-à-vis de ces langues.
Peut-on par conséquent traduire par "languages for which France acknowledges some cultural heritage responsibility"?
Merci à tous

cultural heritage

Donc d'accord avec ta proposition, mais dans cette formule :
"... represent a cultural heritage France acknowledges it has a duty to protect."
Car il me semble que la notion de "responsabilité" ici implique bien la protection de ce patrimoine.

La phrase exemple (qui a disparu la 1e fois !) :
"When a language dies out, future generations lose a vital part of the culture that is necessary to completely understand it. This makes language a vulnerable aspect of cultural heritage, and it becomes especially important to preserve it."

cultural heritage custodian

The French State/Government acknowledges that it is the cultural heritage custodian of these languages.

"... acting as a cultural heritage custodian, the state acts in fact as the great equalizer (...) it decreed what is the literary language to be used..."

These languages are valuable and the State admits to being the entity which has to protect/safeguard/take care of them.

a duty of linguistic heritage promotion

I say 'linguistic' because the TXT is about linguistic promotion.

I say 'promotion' because linguistic protection is mainly about promoting marginalized languages.

disagree writeaway : it's about preserving/protecting them (responsabilité envers), not promoting them.

See the Oxford and Merriam-Webster definitions posted in my note above.

Of course it's different; the only word common to the two answers is "heritage".
