What is Language border?
[[File:Map Languages CH.png|thumb|Borders between German, French, Italian and Romansh in Switzerland]] A '''language border''' or '''language boundary''' is the line separating two languages. The two languages must be different enough for speakers to not understand each other. If the speakers do understand each other, there will be a [[dialect continuum]] with no exact border, and the languages will mix with each other. A '''language island''' is a language area that is fully surrounded by a language border. [[Category:Language]] [[Category:Borders]] {{stub}}
