[[Brest]] (/{{IPA|ˈbɹɛst}}/; [[Brest]]: ''brest'' [{{IPA|ˈbrest}}] or ''brestig'' [{{IPA|ˈbrestig}}]) is an [[a posteriori]] brittonic altlang spoken in rural areas of northwestern France.

It exhibits notable germanic influence and substrate, along with many borrowings from both a [[w:substrate|substrate]] germanic language and French. It is believed by some to have arised after the creation of a [[w:creole|creole]] in the area, although many scholars dispute this idea vehemently.
