Presentation:

A text of geography of languages in Europe like this shows two substantial innovations, one that deals with methodological aspects and the other   involves the didactic approach.From a conceptual point of view   the book we offer here differs from those put into circulation on same subject, because these consider language as one of the several elements of history, culture, economy   which interact one with the others in the territory, whilst our aim is to bring to the fore language, in its grammatical aspects,   also trying to explain   and   make sense of   variants, corruptions and   assimilations in vocabulary, in script, in grammar   and finally in place names.
