In France you read Italian (6)
I believe the answer is:
tuscan
'italian' is the definition.
(someone from Tuscany in Italy)
'in france you read' is the wordplay.
'in france you' becomes 'tu' ('you' in French).
'read' becomes 'scan' (scanning is a kind of reading).
'tu'+'scan'='TUSCAN'
(Other definitions for tuscan that I've seen before include "European" , "Of region around Florence" , "From a central Italian region" , "Standard Italian" , "Relating to a region of Italy" .)
