History of Lombard
Lombard languages developed from Vulgar Latin in the Po Valley. Milan was the Western Roman Empire's capital, and Lombard dialects have ancient roots. Despite Italian standardization, Lombard persists especially among older generations. Milan's cultural influence (fashion, media, opera at La Scala) gives Milanese particular prestige.
Is Lombard Hard to Learn?
Lombard is related to Italian but has distinct phonology and vocabulary. Some features resemble French more than Italian. Italian speakers will understand much but need to learn different sounds. Limited standardization means variation between cities.
