In the science of translation, it is important to know the history of the source language to make it easier for you to grasp the true meaning of the text. We’ll go over this in the next section. The History of Vernacular Languages These types of languages are always the result of the union of the different civilizations that passed through a particular region before the formation of the language proper. For example, Latin was the language spoken in Italy, but the influences of the various countries invaded by Roman troops created a vulgar Latin. In fact, vernacular languages are all those derived from Latin, which were not Latin, and which received this name from the Romans. These variants of the main language were contaminated with the languages spoken before Roman occupation, and which continued to evolve and become a different language in each region of Spain. Later, during the Reconquista, they all came together to result in the Spanish language. This same process happened in several European countries, so as a translator, it is important to have some understanding of the history. Just as it happened in Spain, there are many […]
