    Such an interesting video! I would definitely love to hear you speak Sardinian, it sounds truly very close to what Latin used to sound. I'm a Romanian native speaker and to me Sardinian is the closest living language to Latin in terms of grammar and sound ,but I can also hear similarities to romanian words.

    Thank you for providing your input.
    As a Spanish speaker, I understand the Nuorese variant of Sardinian the best. It has a forceful yet melodious sound. I noticed that in Sardinian there's a tendency to add "zu/za" when there's a consonant -- i.e., "su tempus" (written form) is pronounced as "su tempuzu" which there's a tendency to end "s" with a vowel. This occurs in some Italian dialects, especially in the north. I know that the Nuorese variant doesn't do this as much. I know some variants of Sardinian would say it like the following: "su tempuzu" or "su dempuzu" or "su dempus", "su rempuzu" or "su rempus", or "u tempu", or "lu temps". The Nuorese version is "Su tempuz" but the Fonni Sardinian version pronounces it as "su tempus"

    In the Sicilian dialect there is the word ferrare, but I think it means take or hold tight. The word for sand in Sicily is rina, not sabbia, which comes from arena (classical latin). In Apulia and in some parts of Molise (which i came from) we say craie for tomorrow. There are also many words in other dialects, especially in southern Italy, that come directly from classical Latin. The word for take in southern dialects is also pigliare.

    The early 1900s American derogatory slang word Italian immigrants was "dago" (alongside "wop"). Most Italian emigrants came from Sicily or the southern boot, but some mustve come from Sardinia, If so they wouldve referred to themselves as "I", or "dego". Wonder if thats were the American slur word came from.
