List and classification
The following list of Romance languages is based on books written by recognized scholars, especially Pierre Bec[1], Jacques Allières[2], Rebecca Posner[3], Holtus & Meteltin & Schmitt [4] and M. Metzeltin[5].
- Balkano-Romance group
- Italo-Romance group
- Rhaeto-Romance group (an overlap of Gallo-Romance and Italo-Romance)
- Gallo-Romance group
- Occitano-Romance group (an overlap of Gallo-Romance and Ibero-Romance)
- Ibero-Romance group
Another classification, especially supported by Gerhard Rohlfs[7], divides the Romance languages between Eastern Romania and Western Romania (Romania being a Latin name for the Romance-speaking world). The dividing line between the two groups splits Italy from La Spezia to Rimini (or more exactly from Carrara to Senigallia), setting Northern Italian in Western Romania and Italian proper in Eastern Romania.
- Eastern Romania comprises Romanian, Dalmatian, Italian proper and Corsican.
- Western Romania comprises Northern Italian, Friulian, Ladin, Romansh, French, Francoprovençal, Occitan, Catalan, Aragonese, Spanish, Asturian-Leonese, Galician-Portuguese and Mozarabic.
- The very conservative Sardinian language remains intermediary between the two groups.
