The Proto-Iberian language is the reconstructed or ancestor proto-language of the Iberian branch of the Indo-European languages. The Proto-Iberian language presumably had begun to separate from the w:Proto-Indo-European languages in the 3rd to 2nd millenia BC, becoming an entirely different language in the mid of the 2nd millenia BC.

The Iberians (ethnicity) are known to have started as a very small group of tribes in East Iberia that later expanded to the entirety of Iberia (which would later result in two distinct languages) within the years. Its vocabulary is almost entirely derived from Proto-Indo-European with exceptions of late borrowings from Ancient Greek.

Etymology

The language name derives itself from an Ancient Greek reborrowing that comes from the River Ibēr (actual River Ebro in Spain), named by Celts.

Romanization

Romanizing is pretty straight forward, there are only 5 vowels (all of which have long variants) and 17 consonants that are one-to-one correspondences totalizing 27 letters.
