Shuadit

Judæo-Occitan, or less accurately Judæo-Provençal, also Shuadit (also spelled Chouhadite, Chouhadit, Chouadite, Chouadit, and Shuhadit), Judéo-Comtadin and Hébraïco-Comtadin, is the Occitan language as historically spoken by French Jews. It was not a distinct language, and was indistinguishable from the Occitan spoken by non-Jews (Banitt 1963, Pansier 1925, Guttel & Aslanov 2006:560). Shuadit is known from documents dating to as early as the 11th century in France, and after suffering drastic declines beginning with the charter of the Inquisition in France, finally died out with the death of its last known speaker, Armand Lunel, in 1977.
