gallo-siculo or siculo-gallic? --Jorgengb 04:57, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
- I have often wondered myself. I note that the Italian article uses "gallo-siculo". Prof. Hull in Polyglot Italy, talks of Gallo-Romance elements in the koine, but then says: Siculo-Padanian had died out or been sicilianized beyond recognition by the twelfth century everywhere except in the towns of Novara, San Fratello, Nicosia, Sperlinga, Aidone and Piazza Armerina. Might be worthwhile asking the same question in the Italian article. πίππύ δ'Ω∑ - (waarom? jus'b'coz!) 13:10, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Move this page?
Hi all, after completing a bit this page, we could envisage to move it into Cisalpine language/Cisalpine languages. What about that? Bests regards, --10caart 12:47, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
- "Cisalpine" is a quite confusing name, see Cisalpine (disambiguation). Best regards.--Aubadaurada 13:23, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
- I had to revert the last modifications (and the last renaming) made by 10caart, which are misleading and undocumented; Hull calls the language 'Padanian', only Pellegrini calls it 'Cisalpine'.--Aubadaurada 01:01, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Name
I don't mean to start this whole language/ dialect debate, but shouldn't this article be "Northern Italian languages" (plural) since Piedmontese, Venetian, Lombard and maybe others are seen by some scholars as languages in their own right? Dionix (talk) 18:42, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
