Iberian Romance refers to a group of Romance languages that developed on the Iberian Peninsula, primarily in Spain and Portugal. These languages evolved from Vulgar Latin after the fall of the Roman Empire and include Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, and Galician. Each language has its own unique characteristics but shares common roots and features. The Iberian Romance languages are part of the larger Romance language family, which also includes languages like French and Italian. They are characterized by their use of gendered nouns, verb conjugations, and a rich vocabulary derived from Latin. These languages are spoken by millions of people today and play a significant role in the cultural identity of their respective regions.
