The story of a late Latin language, people who spoke it and a tour of its possible features. Subscribe for more Become my patron ~ Briefly ~ Our story starts with a map of modern Romance languages, zooming in one of the areas where a local neo-Latin language did not survive: Roman Africa. We'll meet Punic speakers in Carthage, hear of Roman and Vandal and Byzantine and Umayyad conquests, and Amazigh (\"Berber\") people all along as we uncover pieces of this tongue's story. In the end we're left speculating, wondering about a language that maybe - possibly! - had a vowel system like Sardinian, k-sounding Cs like Dalmatian, b-sounding Vs like Spain and interacted with local languages that other Romance languages hardly knew. ~ Credits ~ Art, narration and animation by Josh from NativLang.
