Mozarabic was a continuum of closely related Romance dialects spoken in Muslim-dominated areas of the Iberian Peninsula. Mozarabic descends from Late Latin and early Romance dialects spoken in the Hispania from the 5th to the 8th centuries and was spoken until the 14th century.This set of dialects came to be called the Mozarabic language by 19th century Spanish scholars though there was never a common standard. The word Mozarab is a loanword from Arabic مُستَعرَب musta’rab meaning Arabized.
