Ladin language

Ladin (/ləˈdiːn/ lə-DEEN,[5][6] UK also /læˈdiːn/ la-DEEN;[7] autonym: ladin; Italian: ladino; German: Ladinisch) is a Romance language of the Rhaeto-Romance subgroup, mainly spoken in the Dolomite Mountains in Northern Italy in the provinces of South Tyrol, Trentino, and Belluno, by the Ladin people.[8] It exhibits similarities to Romansh, spoken in Switzerland, as well as Friulian, spoken in north-east Italy.

Not to be confused with Ladino or Latin.

The precise extension of the Ladin language area is a subject of scholarly debate. A narrower perspective includes only the dialects of the valleys around the Sella group, while wider definitions comprise the dialects of adjacent valleys in the Province of Belluno and even dialects spoken in the northwestern Trentino.[9][10]


A standard variety of Ladin (Ladin Dolomitan) has been developed by the Office for Ladin Language Planning as a common communication tool across the whole Ladin-speaking region.[11]

Gherdëina, spoken in by 8,148 inhabitants (80–90% of the population);

Val Gardena

Badiot and Maró, spoken in and in Mareo by 9,229 people, i.e. 95%, as native language.
