wondering how to use the phrase "a partir de"?

Question

How do I?

Answer 1

That's a third case I didn't think about. It's like a reference point for Spanish language development from the Latin spoken in the peninsula (referring to Spain I guess).

Answer 2

so what would "El desarrollo del espanol a partir del latin hablado en la peninsula" significa?

The development of Spanish out of the Latin spoken on the (Iberian) peninsula. - CalvoViejo, Jan 11, 2010

Answer 3

It can be either "a partir de aquí" (location), or "a partir de hoy/ahora" (time).

"Vamos a correr a partir de aqui hasta aquella marca". We are going to run from here to that mark.

"A partir de ahora este es tu trabajo". From now, this is your job.
