Emilian-Romagnol (emiliân-rumagnōl or längua emiglièna-rumagnôla), also known as Emiliano-Romagnolo, is a Gallo-Italic language. Its two branches, Emilian and Romagnol, were traditionally considered two closely related dialect groups spoken in the eponymous northern Italian region of Emilia-Romagna and in San Marino, as well as bordering parts of Lombardy, Umbria, Marche, Liguria, Piedmont, Veneto and Tuscany. Today the term Emilian-Romagnol is deprecated and considered obsolete; in order to respect the latest linguistic classification, it is preferable to distinguish Emilian and Romagnol into two close yet separate languages.[3]
