Lombardic / Langobardic
Region: Pannonia and Italy
Extinct: 11th century
Language family: Indo-European (Germanic)
Lombardic or Langobardic is an extinct West Germanic language that was spoken by the Lombards (Langobardi), the Germanic people who settled in Italy in the sixth century. It was already declining by the seventh century because the invaders quickly adopted the Latin vernacular spoken by the local population. Lombardic may have been in use in scattered areas until as late as c. 1000 AD. A number of place names in the Lombardy Region in Northern Italy and items of Lombard vocabulary derive from Lombardic.
Lombardic is a Trümmersprache (literally, 'rubble-language'), that is, a language preserved in only fragmentary form: there are no texts in Lombardic, only individual words and personal names cited in Latin law codes, histories and charters. As a result, there are many aspects of the language about which nothing is known.

Hi I'm the guy from the video (you may have recognised me, I also appear in the video of the modern Lombard language). It's a pleasure to share the language of my ancestors with you! We don't know much about it, so some words are recreated from Old high German, and the text is from the Hildebrandlied, one of the few texts recreate in the german book "Die westgermasiche"

It is incredible how many frequent Italian words come from Longobardic!

[@mrtizio13]

I love how the word ''strak'' has survived in lombard dialect unchanged in meaning and pronunciation.

[@anjadyrting3206]

As a swedish person I recognised a lot of words,very interesting!

[@AshleyGravesreal]

A good part part of our italian vocabulary is actually derived from Langobardic, they invaded us in 568 b.C. and created a reign which lasted for roughly two centuries. Examples are GUERRA (war), TRAPPOLA (trap), RUSSARE (to snore) , SPACCARE (destroy), SCHERZARE (to joke), GUANCIA (cheek), SCHIENA (back).

Strak is still used in nowadays Lombard dialects for tired

[@bhka6423]

They were called "Langobards" because they had long beards.

[@masterjunky863]

I'm from Lombardy and I love this language

[@ia2715]

As an italian from Umbria (central Italy) i’m very surprised by the longobardic word for tired “Strak”, infact in my dialect we say “stracco/straccu” that means tired

[@alessiomacerola3720]

I am Italian and I can understand some words

[@nicoloanzivino6181]

Chair in longobardic: skranna, chair in Arsan( italian dialect, but actually a language, spoken in Reggio Emilia ): scrana. Pretty interesting to see how people who inhabited certain places a very long time ago can still show us their linguistic influence on languages that are spoken today, especially if you think that Arsan developed from latin, but in an area which had been indeed influenced by the longobards. Plus: the italian, therefore tuscan dialect, word for cheek is "guancia", clearly similar to wangja in longobard, as well as melm in longobardic and "melma" in italian, both meaning mud( the italian word in this case has a particular nuance but it fundamentally means "mud" ).

Underbart att höra språket från gemensamma förfäder.

"Parecchi sono i termini della lingua italiana derivati dal longobardo, tra i più numerosi fra quelli ereditati dalle antiche lingue germaniche. Per citarne solo alcuni, ricordiamo alcune voci di carattere militare come strale, sguattero ("guardia" in longobardo), spalto. Alla struttura della casa si riferiscono palco, panca, scaffale, stamberga ("casa di pietra"), stucco. Arnesi e utensìli per varie attività domestiche e tecniche sono la gruccia, la palla, la greppia, la trappola, la spranga. Parecchi termini longobardi indicano parti del corpo umano: guancia, schiena, stinco, nocca, zazzera. Numerosi sono i verbi che designano azioni tecniche o concrete come scherzare, russare, tuffare, spaccare, strofinare, schernire, arruffare. E ricco e stracco sono due aggettivi di etimo longobardo come i sostantivi tanfo e schiuma". [

[@nikhilalbert3084]

Great! Good to see a different West Germanic language! Hope to see Vandalic.

[@baqikenny]

I feel like this is what a hollywood director would pick for chanting a spell

[@DixieBanjo]

I love the sound of this language

[@maurovivian294]

great I'm hearing this for the first time in my life and not only I like it a lot, how it sounds and so on, but also found the ancestors of words which we use every day in our non-germanic language
