 | | The last speaker of any Dalmatian dialect was Tuone Udaina (in Italian: Antonio Udina), and he was killed by a landmine on June 10, 1898. |  | | This dialect and the original Dalmatian language are not related, though, and should not be confused. |  | | A letter of the 14th century from Zadar shows strong Venetian influence, which was also the cause of its extinction soon after. |

 | | Though some scholars connect it with Rhaetian Friulian dialects or with Venetian dialects of Italian, others maintain that it is an independent language. |  | | We believe the language was in use since Roman colonists came here in the last centuries BC, but the first mentioning about it in linguistic literature appeared only in 1842, later all dialects were recorded, and linguists found several documents written in it in archives of Dubrovnik (former Ragusa). |  | | This is considered by some linguists a dialect of Romanian language, but it bears some independent traits and in fact originated not from Romanian, but from Dalmatian language, spoken several centuries ago in Dalmatia and now extinct. |

 | | Greater freedom and easier mobility gave rise to the continuous running Slavic serfs whom they encountered, and eventually most Morlachs linguistically assimilated the local Slavs. |  | | The first phase of that proactive assimilation of Morlachs took place in Herzegovina and Montenegro where they not only were accepting the language of the local Slavs (now identified Serbs), but also turning it into a new Slavic language "novoshtokavian dialect shtokavian" which would later serve as the base for Serbo-Croatian. |  | | But the fact that the Morlachs in the Western Balkan never reached the level of a nation, and had not given it their proper name resulted in recent disintegration of the Serbo-Croatian into Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian language. |
