Italian (Italian: italiano) is a Romance
language spoken by about 70 million people primarily in Italy. Standard Italian is based on Tuscan dialects and
is somewhat intermediate between the languages of Southern Italy and the Gallo-Romance languages of the North.

for example, French and Spanish, double consonants are pronounced as long (geminated) in Italian. As in most Romance
languages (with the notable exception of French), stress is distinctive. Out of the Romance languages, Italian
is generally considered to be the one most closely resembling Latin in terms of vocabulary and pronunciation, though
Romanian most closely preserves the grammar of Classical Latin.
History
The history of the Italian language is quite complex but the modern standard of the language was largely shaped
by relatively recent events. The earliest surviving texts which can definitely be called Italian (as opposed to
its predecessor Vulgar Latin) are legal formulae from the region of Benevento dating from A.D. 960-963. Italian
was first formalized in the 14th century through the works of Dante Alighieri, who mixed southern Italian dialects,
especially Sicilian, with his native Tuscan in his epic poems known collectively as the Commedia, to which Boccaccio
later affixed the title Divina. Dante's much-loved works were read throughout Italy and his written dialect became

language.
