Description

Publisher: Mercator-EducationPublication date: 2000Number of pages: 40Corsican is a romance language of the Italo-Roman group. The departments of the Ministry of Education generally admit it as an autonomous language. It is worth pointing out that it is not an imported or transformed version of Italian, but the result of its ow n evolution fro m an origina l linguistic state that was prob ably highly Latinise d. It is in fact assumed that on the pre-Lat in Tyrrhenian substrate, proper to the lands of maritime Romania (Sardinia, the Italian peninsula, Sicily and Corsica), a popular neo-Latin formed itself as the foundation stone of the Roman speech whichwas progressive ly to becom e the Corsican language spoken today.
