Western Lombard is a
Romance language spoken in
Italy, in the
Lombard provinces
of Milan,
Monza,
Varese,
Como,
Lecco,
Sondrio, a little part
of Cremona (except
Crema and its neighbours),
Lodi and
Pavia, and the
Piedmont provinces
of Novara,
Verbano-Cusio-Ossola and a small part
of Vercelli (
Valsesia), and
Switzerland (
Canton Ticino and part of
Grischun). After the name of the region involved, land of the former
Duchy of Milan, this language is often referred to as Insubric (see
Insubria and
Insubres) or Milanese, or, after Clemente Merlo, Cisabduano (literally "of this side of
Adda River").
