Sardu logudoresu or Logudorian is one of the languages of Sardinia, properly a diasystem of Sardinian, and it is without any doubt the most conservative of all Romance languages. Sardinia (Sardigna, Sardinna or Sardinnia in the Sardinian language, Sardegna in Italian, Sardenya in Catalan), is the second largest island in the Mediterranean Sea (Sicily is the largest), between Italy, Spain and Tunisia, south of Corsica. ...

Location and Distribution
The name recalls the area of Logudoro (literally "golden place") in which it is spoken; it is a central-eastern sub-region of the island of Sardinia and mainly defers to Ozieri (Othieri) and Nuoro (N`ugoro) for culture and language, as well as for history. Roughly we could say it is an area of 150 x 100 km, with some 5-700,000 inhabitants. Nùgoro is the local name of Nuoro, the main town of central Sardinia, Italy. ...
Origins and Features The language's origins have been investigated by several authors: Eduardo Blasco Ferrer's investigation is one of the most thorough. Studies show the language to be related to Etruscan, Latin, and Spanish (due to Aragon's domain in the island). Some roots, however, still cannot be deciphered, as they might come from the language of the Nuragici people, which should have been influenced by the Phoenician languages but originated from Sanskrit. Also, the mysterious people of Shardana would be expected to have played an important role in the island's evolution, but only mere hypotheses are available on this matter. Comparisons have been made with Sardo campidanese, the other main variant of the Sardinian language, spoken on the southern side of the island, and it seems obvious that the two variants share common roots but have experienced different evolutions, even if Campidanesu has better certified relationships with Southern Mediterranean languages.

The most interesting feature of Sardu Logudoresu is perhaps that, due to the particular history of the area, it has suffered very little contamination and has changed very slowly, preserving traces of every innovation.
Dialects Sardu Logudoresu has a number of dialects (see: Sardinian language), perhaps one per village, with differences that may sometimes be relevant; nevertheless, there appear to be no communication problems among different Logudoresu dialects.
