Tarantino Dialect
Tarantino (; Tarantino: ; it, dialetto tarantino), spoken in the southeastern Italian region of Apulia, is a transitional language, most of whose speakers live in the Apulian city of Taranto. The dialect is also spoken by a few Italian immigrants in the United States, especially in California. History The Tarantino dialect traces its origins into ancient times, when the territory was dominated by the Messapii. The colonisation by the Greeks founded Taranto not only as the capital of Magna Graecia but as a centre of poetry and theatre. The Greeks had left considerable influence on Tarantino, both in vocabulary and morpho-syntax, and a very peculiar accent that scholars corresponded to Doric. These influences are still found in many Tarantino words of Greek origin. Subsequently, the city of Taranto became a Roman city, thus introducing much Vulgar Latin vocabulary. During the Byzantine and Lombard periods, Tarantino acquired diphthongization: the short ''o'' changed to '' ...
