Opole Voivodship

talk

Polish is the first language, as in all of Poland. Therefore, everyone speaks it. German plays a historic role in the region and some towns and cities are bi-lingual because of the German-speaking minority. There are even German language newspapers and schools. Silesian, a slavic minority language is also spoken in most of the Opole/Upper Silesia region. English and German may be spoken by the young.
