Old Romagnol is the earliest recorded form of the Romagnol language, spoken in the Romagna part of the Emilia-Romagna region in Italy, and San Marino. It was the form of Romagnol spoken around the early modern period.
Belonging to the Gallo-Italic languages, it was related to most of the languages of Northern Italy, such as Lombard, Piedmontese, and Ligurian. It developed from Vulgar Latin, just like all other Romance languages. In the 20th century, Romagnol had started to flourish, marking the end of the Old Romagnol era.
