Italian the Most Romantic Language in the World

Tweet

This might be debatable but let me give you my side of the story. When I was a girl I studied Latin for 5 years, and many a lesson would refer us to an easier way to explain the Latin lesson via the Italian version. One day our Latin teacher was asked why we refer to so many Italian words if we were learning Latin . . . and she gave us this answer: "Italian is one of the most Romantic Languages in the World: It is said, that in the 19th century, when the various provinces and regions united and formed the Country of Italy as we know it today, the Linguists decided to adopt only the beautiful words from their various dialects and make up the language as it is spoken in the modern world. Even though many words are from Latin origin, many other surrounding dialects make up the most Romantic Language of the world - Italian. " and till today, I remember her giving us that answer to which helped the understanding of our Latin, I still cant speak Italian, but I understand most of the Latin I was taught. discipula, discipulae, discipulus! For I am ever a student. Wikipedia says: "Modern Italian It was not until the 19th century that the language spoken by educated Tuscans spread to become the language of a new nation. The unification of Italy in 1861 had a profound impact not only on the political scene but also resulted in a significant social, economical, and cultural transformation" Italian has so much history - spoken correctly it sounds like a poem of love to anyone's ears! This subject came about with something Anna said - @Ladyduck - she will know and with that I bid you arrivederci
