Southern Romance languages

The Southern Romance languages make up a hypothetical sub-group of the family of Romance languages suggested by Ethnologue and Glottolog, but with little support among other linguists.

According to Ethnologue and Glottolog, the family would include Sardinian, Corsican, the Gallurese dialect, and the dialects of Sassarese. In mainstream linguistics, Corsican is instead considered closest to the Tuscan dialect of Italian and closer to standard Italian than many other Italian dialects, while Sardinian is considered a separate language in its own right.
