	Dalmatian language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		10 June 1898, when Tuone Udaina was killed
		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.
		His language was studied by an Italian scholar, Matteo Giulio Bartoli who visited him in 1897 and wrote down thousands of words, stories, accounts of his life, which were published in a book, with Italian translation, which provides much information on the vocabulary, phonology and grammar of the language.

	RLS XXXI Abstracts
		The Dalmatian of the sole surviving (semi-)speaker, Tuone Udaina, was surveyed in the late 1870s and again towards the end of his life in the late 1890s.
		These fairly extensive records curiously suggest that a systematic morphological change took place in those two decades such that by the 1890s the distinction between present and imperfect indicative had largely been neutralized (a development unique among Romance languages) in favour of the imperfect tense-forms.
		I argue that the data are authentic and that the change, whether it occurred just in Udaina's head or was already underway in the last years of Dalmatian as a spoken language, is purely 'internal' and not motivated by contact with other languages.

		The northern dialect was called Vegliot and the southern Ragusan — it was spoken near Dubrovnik.
		Its last speaker, Tuone Udaina (in Italian: Antonio Udina), was killed by a landmine on June 10, 1898.
		Note that the term "Dalmatian" today is often used to refer to the Čakavian-ikavian; Croatian dialect spoken in Dalmatia, which includes many words picked up from Italian and even some from German.

	fact the last person (20 March 2000, Interconnected)
		Okay, so I investigating this a bit and came up with a couple of facts of my own:
		The last speaker of Dalmatian was Tuone Udaina (Italian: Antonio Udina).
		It appears that two different people have sent the same question (word for word) to the Linguist maillist, trying to find out about this guy - almost two years apart (in June 1998 and January 2000).
