Old Spanish
Old Spanish refers to the variety of the Spanish language that was spoken in the Iberian Peninsula between the 9th and 15th centuries. It is characterized by its archaic vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation compared to modern Spanish. Old Spanish was heavily influenced by Latin and Arabic due to the historical context of the Iberian Peninsula during this time period. This form of Spanish was used in literature, religious texts, and official documents during the Middle Ages.
