    • In this paper we will concentrate on the problem posed by Iberian Romance languages (i.e. Catalan, Portuguese, and Spanish), … Eulàlia Bonet and Joan Mascaró, On the representation of contrasting rhotics, in: 1997, Fernando Martínez-Gil, Alfonso Morales-Front (eds.), Issues in the Phonology and Morphology of the Major Iberian Languages, p. 103ff., here p. 103
    • This book is a fully updated edition of a work first published in 1986. It is intended as a comprehensive work on both current and historical phonetic transcription practice. It covers the phonetic symbol usages of such major traditions as the early Amerindianist work of the Boas school; the American structuralist phonetics and phonology associated with Bloch, Smith, and Trager; and the internationally known system of phonetic representation traditions and transcription principles associated with the International Phonetic Association (IPA). In addition it covers less well known traditions like those of Romance philologists, Germanicists, Slavicists, Indologists, Sinologists, Africanists, and so on, and includes entries for rare and obsolete symbols that have been suggested for use by respected specialists in phonetics but which will be unfamiliar to most linguists and speech scientists. 2013, Geoffrey K.

Etymology

From Old French romanz (“vernacular language (of France)”), from Late Latin rōmānicē, from Latin rōmānicus < rōmānus + -icus. Extended in the 17th century to all languages derived from Latin.

Meanings

  1. (uncountable) The group of languages and cultures which are derived from Vulgar Latin.
    • The Romance languages are normally grouped along broad geographical lines into Italo-Romance (Italian dialects, with a standard based on Tuscan); Gallo-Romance (French and Provençal); Hispano-Romance (Castilian Spanish, Catalan as less widely recognized standard, and Portuguese); Rhaeto-Romance (Romansh, Ladin, and Friulian); and Balkan Romance (Dalmatian, now extinct, and Romanian). [...] Proto-Romance was a purely spoken language, and we should at least in principle keep it separate from Vulgar Latin. 2024, Wolfgang Oliver!
