Abstract

Through the analysis of some adjectives, which have specialised meanings when used with certain names, we have tried to show that the different levels in Latin language were intercommunicated up to the 5th century. The different meanings that sermo acquires through association with adjectives likes humilis or rusticus do not include the notion of incorrectness, but only the variation among the different but acceptable registers that always existed in Latin.
