    in Albania 70 -80 % standart....all other albanians 95% dialect

    "Shqiptar i vërtetë e i mirë është ay që vë gjithënjë e kurëdo kombërinë përpara fesë, nuk ka vëllezër ata që ka në besën e tij, por ata që ka në kombëri të tij.” – Sami Frashëri"

    There is Czech minority in Zelów town in Łódzkie, obviously it is rarely spoken there. Only around ~500 people. This map is inaccurate, mostly shows where some minorities can be found.


    This map is ok. Rusyn, Lithuanian, German are minority languages in those regions from the earlier map.

    ...and some other regions as well I suppose.

    Here in Coimbra, the accent is the non-accent xd, standart Portuguese where it's said to be more standartly spoken, but by my experiences this also applies to the city of Leiria, and Santarém, Aveiro, etc to some degree at least. Outside of these areas, every major region has its accents, with localized variants in some smaller areas, and unlike England according to Toot, I don't think they are in decline for the most part, though they might not be that often spoken to begin with, like in Lisbon more or less.
