Based upon years of research and painstaking consideration of all the significant publications on the subject, it clarifies a great deal that has been obscure in the transition from Latin to Old Portuguese, to modern Portuguese, and to Brazilian Portuguese. It also helps resolve many of the complex problems of Spanish and general Romance philology.\u003cbr\u003e For the second edition of \u003ci\u003eFrom Latin to Portuguese\u003c\/i\u003e, the author, Edwin B.
