Latgalian is a Baltic language spoken by approximately 150,000-200,000 people, primarily in eastern Latvia, particularly in Latgale, as well as in Selonia and Vidzeme. Some Latgalian speakers can also be found in Siberia and Bashkiriya in the Russian Federation. While officially considered a variant of Latvian, Latgalian is protected by the Latvian Language Law, which ensures its preservation, protection, and development as a historical variant of the Latvian language. There is ongoing debate among linguists, such as Antons Breidaks and Lidija Leikuma, about whether Latgalian should be considered a separate language. Since 1991, there has been a renewed interest in Latgalian, with its inclusion in university courses, publication of books in the language, occasional presence on television, and even some rock groups performing in Latgalian.
