Today Provençal is taught in schools and universities in the region, but is spoken regularly by a small number of people, probably less than five hundred thousand, mostly elderly.
Tänapäeval õpetatakse provensaali piirkonna koolides ja ülikoolides, kuid seda regulaarselt rääkijate hulk on väike, arvatavasti alla 500 000 inimese, enamasti eakad.
