What makes French a Latin-Germanic mixed language
Tutte le giornate si finiscono cosi:
C'est tutti i giorni /tutte le giornate finiscono così (sans si) Va' a mettere il tavolo (cette phrase est totalement erronée) Va'/vai a preparare la tavola
French is different because phonology is completely alien to a Latin ear, and languages are used to be spoken above of all.
French phonology is not alien, most Italians, for instance can understand most of it when it's spoken slowly
<<French phonology is not alien, most Italians, for instance can understand most of it when it's spoken slowly >>
Not true at all.
You're all so funny with your ramblings.
All language families tend to extend areas of contiguous mutual intelligibility as far as possible. Up to the point where the treshold comes too high and a line has to be drawn. The gap between French and the other Romance languages (*including* Langues d'Oc) can pretty much be compared to the relationship between the German + Dutch area and Danish: a minor quantum leap that breaks mutual intelligibility. The rest is crackpot theories.

All homosexual families tend to extend areas of contiguous mutual homosexuality as far as possible. Up to the point where the treshold comes too high and a line has to be drawn. The gap between French and the other Romance homosexuals (*including* Homos d'Oc) can pretty much be compared to the homosexual relationship between the German + Dutch area and Danish: a minor quantum leap that breaks mutual homosexuality. The rest is crackpot theories.

It is obvious that French is an Italian dialect. Spanish is a different language. This is basic vocabulary in Fr, It, Sp...

<<Is Spanish really a romance language?
>> Yes it is, but it shares more vocabulary with Portuguese than with French or Italian. Some words that are the same in Italian or French are not even Romance but derive from Germanic like troppo, whereas the Spanish word is pure Romance: demasiado. Other Spanish words like dia descend from Classical Latin whereas Italian gioirnate is vulgar.

Italian also has the word dì but it's more literary, however one can hear, particularly in some regions, buondì as a synonimous of buongiorno (buenos dias). The Italian word for dia is giorno not giornata. Giornata has got another meaning.

Normal que le français ne s'entend pas comme une langue romane, puisqu'à l'origine c'est le fruit du latin vulgaire transmis par des sujets germaniques, le nord de la Gaule ayant été abondamment peuplée par des lètes pour la plupart d'origine germanique à l'époque du Bas-empire. Par la suite, c'est par l'influence exercé par la royauté franque, également du nord que sont nées les langues d'oïl par rapport aux langues d'oc du sud beaucoup moins colonisée par les Germains, donc plus près phonétiquement du latin vulgaire et des autres langues romanes. Les premiers Germains établis en Gaule après les invasions germaniques étant déjà bilingues après leurs nombreux contacts avec les Romains ont fini par abandonner leur langue maternelle en se mêlant aux populations dites gallo-romaines tout en donnant une nouvelle teinte dans la prononciation de leur langue d'adoption qui possédait d'ailleurs un vocabulaire beaucoup plus riche, donc nul était le besoin d'emprunter au francique, ou presque. Le latin avait aussi beaucoup de prestige pour les Francs après la conversion de Clovis au christianisme et était également très largement utilisée sur l'ensemble du territoire gaulois. |
