Luxembourgish is a Moselle Franconian Germanic language and an official language of Luxembourg alongside French and German. German speakers get a head start on vocabulary; French appears heavily in formal and written life. INLL courses and RTL are the practical public path.

Speaker counts are approximate orders of magnitude for learners, not census figures. Family labels follow Glottolog-style classification; vitality notes (when shown) follow UNESCO WAL / Ethnologue-style framing and should be re-checked for program planning.
