In the mediaeval period, Luthic emerged as a separate language from Gothic. The main written language was Latin, and the few Luthic-language texts preserved from this period are written in the Latin alphabet. From the 7th to the 16th centuries, Mediaeval Luthic gradually transformed through language contact with [[w:Italian language|Old Italian]], [[w:Lombardic language|Langobardic]] and [[w:Frankish language|Frankish]]. During the [[w:Carolingian Empire|Carolingian Empire]] (773–774), [[w:Charles Martel|Charles]] conquered the [[w:Lombards|Lombards]] and thus included northern Italy in his sphere of influence. He renewed the [[w:Roman Curia|Vatican]] donation and the promise to the papacy of continued Frankish protection. Frankish was very strong, until [[w:Louis the Pious|Louis’]] eldest surviving son [[w:Lothair I|Lothair I]] became Emperor in name but ''de facto only'' the ruler of the [[w:Middle Francia|Middle Frankish Kingdom]]. | In the mediaeval period, Luthic emerged as a separate language from Latin and Gothic.

After the fall of Middle Francia and the rise of [[w:Kingdom of Italy (Holy Roman Empire)|Holy Roman Empire]], [[w:Louis II of Italy|Louis II]] conquered [[w:Louis II's campaign against Bari (866–871)|Bari in 871]] led to poor relations with the [[w:Eastern Roman Empire|Eastern Roman Empire]], which led to a lesser degree of the Greek influence present in Luthic. | After the fall of Middle Francia and the rise of [[w:Kingdom of Italy (Holy Roman Empire)|Holy Roman Empire]], [[w:Louis II of Italy|Louis II]] conquered [[w:Louis II's campaign against Bari (866–871)|Bari in 871]] led to poor relations with the [[w:Eastern Roman Empire|Eastern Roman Empire]], which led to a lesser degree of the Greek influence present in Luthic. At this time, Luthic eventually dropped the Gothic alphabet and adopted the Latin alphabet, that still lacked some letters present in the Gothic script, such as ⟨j⟩ and ⟨w⟩, and there was no ⟨v⟩ as distinct from ⟨u⟩. Through the 810s, Luthic eventually borrowed ⟨þ⟩ into its orthography, displacing ⟨θ⟩ and ⟨ψ⟩, that were used in free variation to represent the [[w:Voiceless dental fricative|voiceless dental fricative /θ/]], in fact, the modern Luthic orthography still lacks ⟨j⟩, ⟨k⟩ and ⟨w⟩ for those reasons, in some manuscripts, ⟨y⟩ is found representing the [[w:Voiced labiodental fricative|voiced labiodental fricative /v/]] and the [[w:Voiced bilabial fricative|voiced bilabial fricative /β/]], probably influenced by the Gothic letter ⟨𐍅⟩. | ||
