When I first visited San Marino in 2003, the older couple I stayed with (who spoke no English) and their family all spoke Romagnol among themselves, and some of their nephews taught me a few words - I was struck by how often it seemed more French than Italian. When I went back in 2018, one of their nephews told me that almost no one there speaks "dialetto" any more, and several of the generation I got to know who did have since died.

So I'm really hoping that my friends there will be able to help by translating into Italian the list I'm compiliing in KOReader of all the snippets of romagnol in San Marino la storia in miniatura. BUT, in the meantime, hooray for the Interweb Tubes! The Romagnol stumps me, Google Translate AND DeepL, but incredibly, there's a small romagnol/italian glossay online. Not much, but I'm still amazed it exists at all
