@Emiliano allora de iure il sardo è tutelato ma il massimo che l'italia fa e non cercare di eliminarlo definitivamente (anche se di fatto sta accadendo) ma è anche colpa di noi sardi che quando abbiamo scritto il nostro statuto autonomo a differenza della Sicilia ci siamo andati troppo piano e di fatto è come se non avessimo uno statuto speciale. Il problema è che il sardo non è una lingua unitaria, esistono il Campidanese, il Logudorese e il Gallurese che a loro volta si dividono in dialetti molto variegati (già noti grosse differenze tra casteddaio e quartese e parliamo di zone a pochi chilometri di distanza) quello che bisognerebbe fare sarebbe valorizzare ognuno la propria versione del sardo magari mettendolo come materia vera e propria nel programma delle elementari ma soprattutto favorendolo nel linguaggio quotidiano. Non do la colpa della lenta sparizione del sardo all'Italia, o almeno non del tutto, ritengo che lo stato italiano, ma anche e soprattutto noi Sardi, avremmo dovuto fare di più per valorizzare questo patrimonio linguistico e se mi è concesso farei lo stesso anche per le altre regioni con i rispettivi linguaggi e dialetti (naturalmente l'italiano dovrebbe rimanere una lingua conosciuta da tutti sennò finiamo come l'Austria-Ungheria)

Sono lingue a tutti gli effetti, intelligibili tra loro ma fino ad un certo punto. Per quanto riguarda letteratura concordo, è grazie allo studiare la letteratura italiana che ritengo che almeno penisola e Sicilia dovrebbero rimanere unite (la Sardegna oltre a Bolzano è l'unico territorio che secondo me avrebbe veramente motivo di staccarsi nonostante io preferirei una soluzione federale alla secessione)

I understand why your state does this, but from a historical point of view, this is how history turned out. You have a big beautiful state, you love it. We have a small one and we love it just as much. But historically our paths have diverged for 200 years ago. Part of Moldova, moved away from the Ottomans of the Russian Empire, after 50 years the Romanian state was formed from Moldova and Wallachia. We received our independence 30 years ago, and we value it. When you say that Moldova is Romania, you become the same as the Russians who They say that Ukraine is Russia, although they were together for 300 years. But you and I are not. Only 20 years of your occupation at the beginning of the last century. We love our country and value our independence. We are glad that the very close, fraternal country of Romania is next to us.

Looking at the degree of separation from Latin, French and Portuguese are the furthest removed from Latin. French has strong Germanic influences and boarders Germany. Anyone know why Portuguese is the second most removed Romance language from Latin?: In a study by linguist Mario Pei (1949), the degrees of phonological modification of vowels of the Romance languages with respect to the ancestral Latin were found to be as follows[13][14] Sardinian: 8%; Italian: 12%; Spanish: 20%; Romanian: 23.5%; Occitan: 25%; Portuguese: 31%; French: 44%.

DeltaME I don’t know the answers either but I have for a while contradicted claims that state Brazilian Portuguese is the language that preserved the original Portuguese, not European Portuguese. But how can it be that Brazil, a Portuguese colony like Angola, Mozambique, and others, have preserved the language when it’s well know that the dialects of colonies are influenced by the native population and other immigrants? I think it’s more well known that The dialects of these colonies took on influences from the Native tongue. We know that Indigenous natives and Africans were in Brazil, we know Africans were in Angola and Mozambique. Portugual in no way had a minority population at the scale of one of the Colonies. And so the theory is that the county of Portugal, in which the language was born in, has evolved the most? No I think not

Yes! Thanks for visualizing what I've been trying to explain to people through words. When you actually see how languages evolved, you can see the history of people. Languages tell stories (no pun intended)

About the current decline of Occitan in favor of French: it is not natural, it is the consequence of the government policy of France. *The history of other European nation-states is that of linguistic communities serving their trade needs. France created itself by destroying five cultures - Breton, Occitan, Alsatian, Corsican, and Flemish. We are the only European nation which is the military creation of a non-homogeneous State. This makes France difficult to govern to this day* - Michel Rocard, former prime minister ------------------------------------------------------------- At the end of the 19th century, a native of Provence, Frédéric Mistral, is working for the revival of the Occitan language with his cultural association the Félibrige. Mistral received the 1904 Nobel Prize in Literature. The Félibres and their Occitan successors preach respect for the dialectal diversity of the Occitan language, that they consider being a cultural richness. Contrariwise, the "Jacobins", French supporters of a centralized republican state, are requiring the use of a uniform language: standard French according to the French Academy. Jacobins are fighting the Occitan language considered dangerous because competing with French. They also eradicate native French dialect! Fundamentalist supporters of a French language uniform to communicate, the Republicans will also impose for the natives Occitans, Bretons etc. the exclusive use of this standard French. With this "Jacobin" state policy, indigenous dialectal French became obsolete in the 20th century. The standard French language has become the daily communication tool for the Occitan natives too! However, the Occitan cultural movement still perpetuates a residual but real use of the traditional Occitan language. Today, in French Occitanie, from Nice to Bordeaux, from Auvergne to Gascony, 10% of the 12 millions of Occitans are bilingual, able to speak a local dialect of their own Occitan language. Occitan is also still used in the Occitan valleys of Italy... But it is also official language in the Aran valley in Spain (called there "Aranese")! The French Republic recognizes in its Constitution (Article 75-1) the heritage aspect of local languages (including Occitan). But considering the Republican "Jacobin" idea is unify the French state by standard French language (Article 2 of the Constitution), in facts, the French law only tolerates a private and confidential use of the Occitan. There is a mistrust of romantic nationalism that has been based since the 19th century on indigenous languages, hence the unification of Italy, Germany, independence of Poland, Greece, Ireland ... The geopolitical impact of the linguistic question remains a controversial topic which explains why the French governmental institutions hide the Occitan identity question. Nevertheless, we will not be able to build anything strong on unspoken. The taboo of the problematic of the language used as identity marker must be removed, because "Jacobin" Republicans want to legitimize state centralism through French identity domination to serve the financial interests of the Parisian capitalism! Acculturation is preceding the economic control! that explains the Parisian oligarchy's contempt for non-compliant "regional" identities. In a capitalist Parisian Republic, indigenous Occitans are logically second class citizens. So the Occitan question is essential: there is no parity, no democracy without mutual respect and without decentralization!

1-Por lo visto al inicio el Latín no era la única lengua "romance" y/o "itálica" existente pero después absorbió a todas las otras lenguas cercanas. 2-Qué increíble que el Latín Africano se desprendió del Latín Vulgar casi en el confín de los tiempos pero siglos después terminó extinto por culpa del Árabe. 3-Por lo visto el Sardo es el idioma derivado del Latín más antiguo que aún sobrevive. 4-Por lo visto Panonia era una región "romance" antes de que los magiares la invadieran, la transformaran en Hungría/Magyarország y extinguieran el idioma Panonio o como sea que se llame. 5-Por lo visto el Mozárabe solamente existió durante el tiempo que los musulmanes dominaron la Península Ibérica mientras que el Dálmata era más que nada un dialecto del Italiano que sobrevivió por siglos y siglos. 6-El "Italiano Estándar" moderno absorbió a la gran mayoría de los dialectos de la Península Itálica, el Francés viene cometiendo genocidio lingüístico-cultural contra el Occitano y el Arpitano al menos desde los tiempos de la Revolución Francesa mientras que el Español, el Portugués, el Catalán y otras lenguas romances similares conviven sin mucho problema en la Península Ibérica. 7-El Rumano está bastante expandido por su país pero sin embargo el Arrumano y otros idiomas y dialectos similares emparentados estrechamente con el Rumano están demasiado esparcidos por los Balcanes sin tener un núcleo duro grande en donde los "arrumanos" o como sea que se le llame a ese pueblo sean una mayoría notoria por encima de los pueblos balcánicos no romances. 8-El Español, el Portugués, el Catalán y el Italiano por lo visto son bastante inteligibles pero el Francés y el Rumano son algo más complicados para los hablantes de los otros idiomas mencionados.

We are the same ancient people but we have developed in different geographical areas. They are under various foreign occupations and train in closed communities. that is why their language has remained archaic. It is the ancient language spoken by the Thracian tribes of Europe. But we are the same ancient, genetically proven people. Romanians (the name Romania is from 1866 - that's why we call ourselves romanians but we are Traco Dacians and Getae .

Italian regional languages are languages, Italy has the largest number of recognized indigenous languages in all of Europe, most call them dialects and we are taught to call them dialects but they are languages, most even older than Italian itself. Italian is just essentially a lingua franca used to make us be understood by one another regardless of where we're from. It became clear during WW1 that Italian needed to be standardized and taught because soldiers in the trenches could not even properly understand each other, for they spoke in their own languages and couldn't understand one another. With the invention of radios and TV, Italian became the standard language of the land and it's taken a toll on our regional languages. They're endagered and are protected as a valuable, intangible historical asset by UNESCO.

What I love about these videos that show the world changing over time, may it be about language, borders, religion or whatever: these changes usually happen so slowly that, on a human scale, people usually perceive those characteristics are fixed. It's like plate techtonics: I know it looks still, but it has moved a lot in the past and, slowly, is going to move in the future. When one of the changes appears to be approaching, conservatives who don't like them bring "tradition" as an argument: "This is the language we speak here! This is the religion we follow here! These are the borders of our nation!", and so on. Even if they vaguely know their country has had a different shape in the past, they still perceive the current shape as established. But not these videos: these videos show how flexible certain things are, showing that it would be childish to think that the current status is, for some reason, the definitive one. Like if historic change somehow decided to stop, all of a sudden, right now, just right in the specific instant such people happen to be shortly alive. Take this video for example, pause at 3:30, 4:04, 4:40, 5:30, 6:40, whatever: wouldn't it be foolish to believe that that specific arrangement of colours is the "legit" one, such that the previous one was justified but the next one wasn't? No? Well, _we are_ in one of those paused moments, it only differs in detail that *we* are not sure of what's coming but, whatever it is, it obviously is coming. Don't think of the territorial and qualitative extent of your language as stable: it's shortly going to lose a piece and/or gain another. Don't think of the territorial and qualitative extent of your religion as stable: it's shortly going to lose a piece and/or gain another. Don't think of the territorial and qualitative extent of your country as stable: it's shortly going to lose a piece and/or gain another. Judge changes for their value, not their difference from the current status. Change is inevitable. And that's ok.

As a native Venetian speaker I'm confused, but I can confirm that with Venetan only I can understand more the gallo-italic languages, Friulian and a little bit of Ladin and Istrioto; but I need also Italian to understand something of Neapolitan and related dialects (I can use just Venetian, but it's more difficult than for example understanding Friulian with just it)

Does the popularity of French in Russia after Peter the Great's reign (I assume) count too? And it should definitely also appear in England...

@@guppy719 Not really. The Lingua Franca was a real language on its own. It was a language that developed in the Mediteranean Sea by merchants during the medieval Times until the XIXe century, and was a mix between Occitan, Italian(s), Castilian and other language of the west Mediterean. The name "Lingua Franca" does not link with France. In fact, in the medieval time, the catholics European as a whole where called the "Franks" by the byzantine orthodoxs. It obvously comme from the Franks that became the French people in the end, but during the crusade for instance, all crusaders were called the Franks, despite where they came from, til they were western Europeans. So the Italians and Iberians were Franks like the Occitans, so that's why the name "Lingua Franca" wich means "Language of the Franks". Then, the term is used to designate all language that is used for international exchanges and diplomacy, or just as an international language betwen people of different language. So the French was indeed a Lingua Franca and now we can say that English is the Lingua Franca of the world *cries in Français*

Why are there so many people in this comment section saying that england should be blue because a lot of english words are stolen from latin lmao that's not how it works. The majority of the most common english words are germanic and more importantly the grammar is also germanic, also it doesnt matter how much a language borrows from another, the further you go back in time english looks more germanic but if you tried the same with any romance language it would look closer to latin

English inherited Latin words when it was first formed. The Latin presence in English is inseparable from English itself just like the life cycle belongs to humans before they go through it. England and English-speaking areas should have been pink longer. New cases of Latin influence still happened after 1700. "O fortuna"/Carmina Burana wasn't even known then. University students used Latin fluently and at Westminster the yearly Latin plays were attended by elites and royals well into the 20th century. That's without even mentioning French.

Amazing video ! As a French, the only error I saw was the recent repartition of French : Occitan has disapeared since the 1970s, it is not learned nor talked anymore, and Britanny can be painted in blue as Breton is a minor language there. These changes are caused by the French government that fought to remove regional languages since long ago (and it began to work after the Second World war), now only very old people may speak dialects that they learned at home. Though recently the government tried to step back and authorized some dialects to be learned in class (Breton, Picard...)

As a bit of history; interestingly, Spain is doing the opposite. There are 4 languages and many dialects related to them that governments since the 70's have been encouraging are trying to keep alive because they were damaged previously during a dictatorship, as Spanish was forcefully the only taught and spoken language. You can see them on the map as Spanish, Galician (top left corner) and Catalan (top right). The last one is Basque, the white spot as it is older than latin, and the spot near Galician is an old dialect that comes directly from latin (Astur). And the same happens in a region in the north-east (Navarro-Aragonés). They were languages in the past but they devolved into dialects because of its slow decline in users. The more you know :D

@@rao803 Francoprovençal was not seen as a distinct language for most of its history. It never developed a literary language like Occitan and French. In Switzerland in the middle-ages a situation of triglossia started to develop between Latin, Burgundian French and FP : meaning that each occupied a different function, Latin was the liturgical language, burgundian french was the language of the administration and Francoprovençal was the language of everyday parlance. This became unstable from the protestant reformation onward when French started to replace Latin and a big influx of French Huguenots made so FP was rivaled even in every day life. With the French Revolution, Gallo-Romance speaking Switzerland adopted the French ethos of considering French as a universal and intelctual language, this meant that FP was either seen at best as an expressive peasant language and at worst as a fake deformation of French. This lack of prestigr meant that quite quick, with the rural exode from the countryside to the cities that came with the industrial revolution, French started to take hold of the urban population. This happened quickly in the protestant cantons of Geneva, Neuchâtel and Vaud, FP even disapeared mostly in the middle of the 19th century in the former two. By the turn of the 20th century only the catholic cantons of Fribourg were still Francoprovençal speaking and it was only in the end of the 19th century that Italian linguist Ascoli at last noticed that it was a variety distinct from both French and Occitan. Thus for the swiss autorities, FP was a mere dialect of French, so they saw no need to officialize it like Romansh. Romande (French) Switzerland was also fearing assimilation by the German Swiss, so they pushed on an ethos to use French to assimilate German and German Swiss Migrants, that came to work in the clockwork industry of Neuchâtel, La Chaux-de-Fonds, le Locle, Saint-Imier, Valorbe and Geneva and neighbouring towns and villages. By the 60's, Valais and Fribourg were still very Francoprovençal speaking, sadly however, both cantons saw fit in order to "catch up" with other Cantons, to apply a strict policy of "No patois at school". This meant that the language stopped to be transmitted to the younger generation onward. Slwoly but surely, with the old generation dying out, only the village of Évolène has remained. Francoprovençal has almost died out, because it was seen as not prestigious enough and French as the language of intellectuality, universalism, progress and modernity.

@@rao803 Very few linguists still see it as a subtype of French/D'Oïl. According to all definition of 'language' Francoporvençal would qualify in my opinion. There is the old quote from Yiddish scholar Weinreich "a language is a dialect with an army and navy" meaning that there is no true scientific distinction between language and dialect, only political ones. In dialectology however, we're more interested with language family as dialectal continuum system and where divides occurs. If you compare Francoprovençal to neighbouring Occitan and French/D'Oïl sub-dialects you clearly see there is such a separation in many area of the language; Francoprovençal is clearly distinct phonetically, morphologically (the grammatical shapes of words) and lexically. There is also lots of evidence to suggest Francoprovençal knew a separate history from French/D'Oïl meaning it has been a distinct linguistic community. Also D'Oïl/French speakers have a harder time picking Francoprovençal than other d'Oïl language, meaning there is at least some sort of lack of intercomprehension, which is a criteria used to separate languages. I can see an argument to group Francoprovençal in a sub-family of Gallo-Romance with D'Oïl, but the grouping is clearly of higher level than French vs Poitevin vs Lorrain vs Bourguignon vs Walloon vs Norman etc. so much so that I think it's just simpler to say that Gallo-Romance have three branches : Occitan, D'Oïl and FP (there is also arguments to suggest that there would be a fourth with Gascon), and anyway, if you compare Gallo-Romance to neighboring Romance sub-families it is a very lose family. In public opinion however, Francoprovençal is seen as a 'patois'. This means that for most people it's a deformed form of French that "old people spoke" and few people actually know that for example the 'patois' of Jura which is D'Oil and a form of Franc-Comtois is distinct from the 'patois' of the rest of Romande Switzerland. People often confuse "patois" with regional/dialectal French, what I like to call "Neo-Dialects" meaning that they didn't developped directly from latin but they are merely a regional coloration of French and only took some words of Patois. Also the idea of a "Nation Arpitane" is very much unknown to most people, and there never developped a unified identity around the language like for Occitan. So if there is an area where FP doesn't qualify it may be socio-politically, but of course, every national definition is based upon arbitrary lines. Scandinavian or Serbo-Croatian languages are clearly very intercomprehensible but are yet considered as separate languages while Chinese or Arabic dialects are in a similar position thant Francoprovençal : they're clearly distinct languages separated by centuries of distinct history yet their speaker consider them as just a sub-type of a broader language. Evidence suggests it was the same for Romance languages until very late in the middle-age. The word "Roman" was used indifferently to speak about any linguistic romance variety that was not Latin. So to me the self-identification of the language from its speakers as one should not be used to define languages because this could clearly change with time.

So many dialects that disappeared due to modern day standardisation of languages, that’s so sad

It’s a shame that the Arabs, Germans, and Slavs had to come in and replace various offsprings of Latin. Would be fascinating to see how many of them would be intelligible between each other, similar to how Italian and Spanish somewhat is.
