It's high time for the Corsican language to show its face in our language challenge! These speakers of Spanish, Romanian and Italian have never learned Corsican before. Can they understand it based purely on the mutual intelligibility phenomenon? Are those Romance languages similar enough to hold a conversation? The participants use only their native languages in an attempt to communicate across language boundaries. Let us know how it went for you! :D

Corsican (lingua corsa) is a Romance language constituted by the complex of the Italo-Romance dialects spoken on the Mediterranean island of Corsica (France) and on the northern end of the island of Sardinia (Italy). Corsican is closely related to the Tuscan varieties from the Italian peninsula, and therefore to the Florentine-based standard Italian.
