Landmine has a different meaning in 1897. The modern landmine, meaning an explosive device planted in or near the ground as a trap for ground troops, wasn't invented until about 1916 or 1917 by the German Army. The landmine being talked about here was an actual mine or excavation dug out under fortifications by besieging troops, and filled with explosives with the intent of collapsing those fortifications. But as far as I can tell, Krk never came under direct military attack during the gunpowder era, and it's more likely it was just a cache of explosives that were in storage and were accidentally exploded.

Sort of, the modern idea of landmines did exist. They were used in the Civil War and European countries had developed them by the middle to late 19th century. However, they were instead called torpedos (at least the ones used in the Civil War). It is possible he blew up from a trap that we would call a landmine, however what I believe to be more likely is that an artillery shell had somehow ended up buried and was detonated by roadwork, I find this to be much more likely since artillery shells were in much wider use in the late 19th century than landmines.

"Dalmatic languages" is the common name for autochthonous Romance languages ​​that are spoken on the eastern coast of the Adriatic after the arrival of the Slavs. These languages ​​were gradually dying out due to the influence of the Venetian language and contact with the Croatian ethnos and his language. Thus, for example, in Ragusa / Dubrovnik, the language of the nobility in Dubrovnik, died out in the 15th century, while the last to disappear was Veljot or Krčko-Romance language in the city of Krk on the island of Krk, the language of the people in the 19th century. The most comprehensive work on Dalmatian languages published in 1906. by glottologist Mateo Giulio Bartoli from Istria under the title Das Dalmatische which is based on earlier research and test results - according to Bartoli - of the "last" Veljot/Krk Dalmatic speaker Tuone Udaina Burbur from the city of Krk. This contribution deals with three different approaches to the research problem of Dalmatic languages with emphasis on Veljotski. Even in the English language should be accepted this distinction - DALMATIC was a Romance language while DALMATIAN is a dialectal system of the Croatian language.

I wish someone would translate Das Dalmatische into English so people that don't speak Italian or German at least have a shot at learning some of it.

That sounds rather tragic

Can you make video on other dog breed names that come from geography

This is so sad :(

I can't believe KZread recommended this to me on June 10th, apparently the 123rd anniversary of the death of Dalmatian lmao great video!

Are you going to talk about Molise Slavs?

You can say it went out with a bang

Did Latin die though? It more just evolved and mutated. The fact that the Romance languages are very mutually intelligible can point to Latin still being somewhat "alive" just under different names.

Yeah, ultimately, that's what really happened. It just turned into the Romance Languages, which are basically Neo-Latin. And, if you know one, you can at least read the others, though it depends on proximity. As a Spanish speaker, I can understand written Portuguese, Catalan and other languages of the Iberian peninsula. French and Italian less so. Haven't tried much Romanian, but from what little I have, even less than French. Haven't tried listening to them much, though since my listening skill in Spanish isn't all that great, I'd probably not be the best person to try that out. Then again, you could say that Classical Latin is dead, though more alive than it's siblings (Oscan, Umbrian, Faliscan).

I'm fairly certain though, that the old "proper" Latin of ancient Latium is not mutually intelligible with any surviving Romance language, and not all romance languages are as intelligible to each as others. French for example, is quite different in pronunciation than most (though I guess it's somewhat more understood in written form than otherwise).

@@Murphio25 Definitely not. As someone who's studied Latin after learning Spanish to a fairly high level, though there's a lot of vocabulary overlap and some parts of the verb system are similar, the syntax is quite a bit different, the pronunciation is different in the classical variant (C's and G's are always hard, V is pronounced like a W, some of the diphthongs have changed (au to o, ae and oe to e), etc.) and there's a fairly complex case system that's lost in all modern Romance languages which gave Latin far freer word order. Plus, the passive voice was it's own separate series of forms in Classical Latin that the modern languages have lost. I haven't even touched Old Latin, though, but I'd hazard to guess that's even less intelligible.

@@akl2k7 as someone who speaks Latin, reading Italian is very easy as it has few celtic, arabic or germanic vocabulary added. I imagine Latin is not easy at all for Italians because the grammar is much more complex.

There are still approx. 101 speakers of this language.

From memory there is a second language of Istria, also a Romance language but it is classified as being in the same sub-branch as Romanian. Istriot is related to Dalmatian and Istro-Romanian is related to Romanian, Megleno-Romanian and Macedo-Romanian (aka Valch). Ta

I don't like when people say that Latin died. It actually just evolved. I mean, we never say that languages like my mother tongue Georgian died, but if we compare Georgian spoken 2000 years ago to modern Georgian, it's quite different, because languages evolve. But, in case of Latin, it was spoken on a huge territory and evolved into a lot of different languages, so non of them are called Latin now, hence we say that Latin is dead.

So my birthday is the anniversary not only the declaration of war by Italy in ww2, but also of the death of a language. That's a bit of a sad date.

Dont forget about Istro-Romanian (in Istria-Croatia) which has about a couple thousand speakers as of today and is protected by law

it's off-topic, but this video's volume is too low even when you compare it to ASMR videos. It's too easy to miss what you were saying. please make it a bit louder, name explain.

i still feel like there should be a distinction / 2 different terms for two types of dead languages, distinguished by whether or not they (at least basically) evolved into other languages which are still spoken (e.g. latin, sanskrit) or actually died (e.g. dalmatian, enourmously depressing numbers of american langauges, and tons of others both known and unknown thru history and prehistory. because i appreciate and agree with it as a term for languages which no longer have communities of native speakers, but i feel like there's a huge difference between latin being dead and dalmatian being dead.

Dalmatian is a revived language for instance Latin ,Hebrew are as well not extinct and spoken by twenty fluent speakers by Dalmatian secessionists ,separatists ,independence, sovereignty movements in the Dalmatia peninsula in Croatia who independence ,sovereignty from Croatia.

I have a website written in this language, with some stories written by me.

This NEEDS TO BE A LINGWIST SITCOM, at the end the main character gets killed by an unexplainable explosion and the credits get rolled, there is a post credit scene where they loose the italian study in some idiotic way, there is a whole bunch of bitkering between the lingwist who thinks too highly of himself and a frustrated old man

The reason why manx was revived so spectacularly is because they recorded the speakers on casset tapes as well

I hope this doesn't awaken anything in me

Makes me wonder what it sounds like.

It would be extraordinary if we could revive this Romance language.

You could say that it went out with a bang. :^)

Well today few people know full dalmatian but dalmatian words are still used like blain, intimela and so on

Is a language considered dead if it changes greatly over a few generations, like Old English becoming Middle English then Modern English? Is Old English considered dead?

@Murphio25

I would say yes. The culture and time of Old England is dead, and has been dead for a long while. Speaking to someone who is speaking Old English would be like speaking to a Frisian or Dutch speaker, where some grammar and vocabulary would be understood, the majority of it would not.

Kind of a "Ship of Theseus" problem, that. How much of something has to change over a long period of time in order for it to not be the same thing anymore? Or if you can see the how one change led to another over time, can it still be the same thing, even if 100 percent of it is different? If you go back far enough, I suppose you could consider Proto-Indo-European to be Really, Really Old English (and Really Really Old German, Russian, Hindi, and so on).
