Romance languages are the ones that come from Latin: French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Romanian.

Answer 2

The Romance Languages are a major branch of the Indo-European language family, comprise all languages that descended from Latin, the language of the Roman Empire. The Romance languages have more than 700 million native speakers worldwide, mainly in the Americas, Europe, and Africa, as well as in many smaller regions scattered through the world.

French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Romanian are Romance Languages.

Answer 3

Brava Susananita! The dialects of Italy are not dialects of Italian - they are Romance languages.

Other major romance languages of Italy include Sicilian, Neapolitan, and Emilian.

There is a whole sub-group of Romance languages that hasn't been mentioned yet - the Rhaeto-Romance group which includes Ladin (spoken in the Italian Dolomites) and Rumantsch (spoken in the Swiss Alps).

And have we mentioned Occitan (Provencal)? I think between us we've covered all the major Romance languages, but it would be impossible to make a list that everyone agrees on ... there are at least several dozen Romance languages, if not several hundreds. To know where the list ends, you first of all have to be able to answer the question, "when is a language not a language?"

Answer 4

The Romance languages, a major branch of the Indo-European language family, comprise all languages that descended from Latin, the language of the Roman Empire. The Romance languages have more than 700 million native speakers worldwide, mainly in the Americas, Europe, and Africa, as well as in many smaller regions scattered through the world.

All Romance languages (sometimes referred to as Romanic) descend from Vulgar Latin, the language of soldiers, settlers and merchants of the Roman Empire[citation needed], which was somewhat different from the Classical Latin of the Roman literati. Between 200 BC and AD 100, the expansion of the Empire, together with administrative and educational policies of Rome, made Latin the dominant native language over a wide area spanning from the Iberian Peninsula to the Western coast of the Black Sea. During the Empire's decline and after its collapse and fragmentation in the 5th Century, evolution of Latin within each local area accelerated, and eventually these dialects diverged into a myriad of distinct languages, many of which survive today in their modern forms. The overseas empires established by Spain, Portugal and France from the 15th century onward then spread Romance languages to the other continents—to such an extent that about two-thirds of all Romance speakers today live outside Europe.

The most widely spoken Romance language today is Spanish, followed by Portuguese, French, Italian, Romanian and Catalan. All but Catalan are main and official national languages in more than one country. A few other languages have official status on a regional or otherwise limited level, for instance Friulian, Sardinian and Valdôtain in Italy; Romansh in Switzerland; Galician, Occitan Aranese and Catalan in Spain (the latter of which is also the only official language in the small sovereign state of Andorra). Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, and Romanian are also official languages of the European Union and the Latin Union; French and Spanish are two of the six official languages of the United Nations.

Outside Europe, French, Spanish and Portuguese are spoken and enjoy official status in various countries that made up their respective colonial empires. Spanish and French are spoken on all continents. Spanish is mostly spoken in South America and in isolated regions of Africa, Asia (Philippines, unofficial since 1973) and Oceania, Easter Island (Chile). Portuguese is spread over South America, Western and Southern Africa and some regions of Eastern Asia. Although Italy also had some colonial possessions, the language didn't remain official after the end of the colonial domination, resulting in Italian being spoken only as a minority or secondary language by immigrant communities in North and South America and Australia or African countries like Libya, Eritrea and Somalia. Romania didn't establish a colonial empire, but the language spread outside of Europe due to emigration, notably in Western Asia; Romanian flourished in Israel, where is spoken by some 5% of the total population as mother tongue,[2] and by many more as a secondary language, considering the large population of Romanian-born Jews that moved to Israel after WW2.[3]

Answer 7

I agree with Kalinka. Romance languages are truly fascinating and your question is very interesting (deserving a star). It sent me off on a long internet search and I made some interesting discoveries too.

I speak Italian, French, Spanish and also Sardinian. I just now discovered that Sardinian falls into the category of Romance languages, along with other Italian "dialects" (although they are not really dialects) such as Friulano and Lombard, Marchiggiano and Sicilian, etc. along with Catalan and Galician Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian and so on.

I repeat, languages are truly fascinating.
