Bollezeele (pronounced as /fr/; from Dutch; Bollezele in the modern Dutch spelling) is a commune in the Nord department in northern France.[2]
It is 17km (11miles) south of Dunkirk and also 20km (10miles) west of the Belgian border. The river Yser runs through Bollezeele.
Bollezeele's local speech is traditionally a Flemish dialect, similar to that spoken on the other side of the border with Belgium; this led to the town's being included in the Atlas Linguarum Europae as one of the Germanic dialects in France (the others were all in either Alsace or Moselle).[3]
