| Video Discription | The history of an ordinary Latin mark that turned into an extraordinary Spanish letter. This is how espannol became español!

One of their unique, rare manuscripts tells the story of El Cid. But if you look at this manuscript, you'll see that the script is a bit... strange. Get close enough to the pergamino (parchment) to see all the little squiggles. In Latin, that squiggle is a "titulus". In Spanish, the word "titulus" evolved into "tilde". Let's follow just one of those squiggles to learn its story. It's the story of a routine little mark that became one of the world's most recognizable letters. ~ CREDITS & SOURCES ~ Art, narration and animation by Josh from NativLang.
