You can search history of Spanish to find out. I can tell you that it comes from Latin and belongs the Language family called Romance Languages, which is called that because it was derived from common Latin using in romantic writing.

Hi wiiman

There are two books I would recommend reading if you are interested in the development of the Spanish language:

1). From Latin to Spanish by Paul M. Lloyd

This book is more if you are interested in the technical aspects of the change in language such as particular phonetic changes and morphological shifts.


2).A History of the Spanish Language by Ralph John Penny.

Read the first chapter if you are looking for a historical perspective/overview. Read the rest of the book if you are looking for a more technical interpretation.


Both books are available to preview for free if you Google them and both, as I have already stated are fairly interesting.
