Champenois (lou champaignat) is a Romance language among the langues d'oïl spoken by a minority of people in Champagne and Île-de-France provinces in France, as well as in a handful of towns in southern Belgium (chiefly the municipality of Vresse-sur-Semois).

The language used contrasts the French spoken by the king's messengers with the Champenois of the local inhabitants.

A feature of 18th century Champenois literature was the noëls (Christmas chants), which wove contemporary and local references into pious texts.
