Old Lombard language
Romance language spoken in the 13th and 14th centuries / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Old Lombard (Lombard: Lombard antigh (Milanese orthography)) is a Gallo-Italic language and the earliest form of Lombard (spoken in northern Italy, southwestern Switzerland, and Santa Catarina in Brazil) and Siculo-Lombard (spoken by a minority in areas of Sicily). It was spoken in the 13th to 14th centuries and was closely related to Old Piedmontese, being both considered in the proposed Lombard-Piedmontese language grouping. Other languages similar include Old Venetian and Old Ligurian.
