extinct language of southern Italy

Oscan was an ancient language spoken in southern Italy that eventually died out as Latin became dominant in the region.

奧斯坎語是所操的語言,它是屬於印歐語系意大利語族的,同語支的還有和翁布里亞語,分佈於萨莫奈、坎帕尼亞、、。奧斯坎語因公元前五世紀初的牌銘而聞名,其中兩個最重要的牌銘是:和。奧斯坎語使用的是拉丁字母和希臘字母,同時也曾使用過古意大利字母。 奧斯坎語有六種方言,包括:,,,,,。 奧斯坎語與拉丁語有許多共同點,但也有許多顯著區別,很多常見拉丁語詞組缺失並使用完全不同的詞來。例如:拉丁語的volo,velle,volui,和來自原始印歐語的詞根wel(將,會),奧斯坎語裡就是緣自*gher的herest(他想,他希望),與拉丁語的vult完全不同,又如「地方、位置」一詞,拉丁語是locus,奧斯坎語是slaagid。 在語音體系方面,奧斯坎語和拉丁語也有不同:奧斯坎語用p替換拉丁語的qu(奧斯坎語pis,拉丁語quis);用b替換v;用f替換b或d(奧斯坎語mefiai,拉丁語mediae)。就目前所知,在意大利語族的所有語言中,只有奧斯坎語保留了完整的雙元音系統,在這一方面,只有希臘語可與之相比。
