Noirese or Navese (also formerly known colloquially or even offensively as baule, a word meaning "babble") is an Occitano-Romance language spoken in some towns and municipalities of Asturias, Spain, as a minority language. Although today it is a endangered language, it was formerly spoken in a bigger area and as an administrative language locally. Due to having lost most of its speakers and areas to Asturian and Spanish during the last two centuries, it is today spoken in a very small area with few dialectal variation. Nonetheless there are some differences between the Northern or Norennan, Southern and Western. There are also at least two other dialects recorded but now extinct, Paradés and Ceiés that went extinct during the first part of the 20th century.
Its origin is mysterious but many propose it would have originated from the pilgrims of the Way of St. James, among which Old Provençal or Occitan was an important language, probably some sort of lingua franca among them. Although Noirese is descendant of some variety of Old Occitan, it has recieved a big influence from the surrounding language, Asturleonese and some from Dutch, German, Polish and Silesian, on account of engineers and migrants that came to the Noirese-speaking lands in the 19th and early 20th century to work in the foreign-owned mines and French, Italian, English and others due to the aforementioned Way of St. James.
A Noirese-Spanish Dictionary exists and a general grammar is being composed.
