For tonight's Net, we have a Mixed
Bag of 3 Trivia Questions about
one of your favorite topics: the Romance Languages!
No, not hot, raspy suggestions whispered into the ear of your beloved, but those kind of languages we know as French, Spanish, Italian, etc. Today, more than 800 million native-speakers talk in one of the many, yet diverse, Romance languages.
The Romance languages are a branch of the Indo-European language family -- more precisely of the Italic languages subfamily (yawn!) -- comprising all the languages that descend from the common, everyday language of ancient Rome (from the end of the first century BC).
So just put your feet up or take off your snow-shoes, pour yourself a little cabernet or open that box of Valentine Day chocolates (afterall, VD is still 3 Fridays away), and get ready to check-in with your answers.
OK, so how much do you know (quantus operor vos teneo) about the Romance languages?
Please give us your best answers from any of the 3 (reuseable) answers of "A", "B", or "C" (if applicable!) for each question.
++ "Mixed Bag of 3 Trivia Questions -- #03 -- Let's Talk a Little Romance" ++

Question #2: Today, according to some language experts, how many of the modern, standardized Romance languages are classified as being those most widely spoken?
