'''Montecolan''' or '''Monticulan''' (''munticolés'' [[Help:IPA|[muntikoˈles]]]; [[w:Spanish language|Spanish]]: ''monticuelano'') is a [[w:Western Romance languages|Western Romance language]] spoken by the Montecols of the Western Pyrenees mountains, spoken in Montecol and the Spanish village of Coña-is-Monxes (Spanish: ''Colina de los Monjes''). It is the sole official language of the Kingdom of Montecol since 1903, made so by the [[w:Nationalism|nationalist]] king David I; before this, it had co-official status with Spanish.

Despite its proximity to other broadly similar Iberian languages such as [[w:Aragonese language|Aragonese]], [[w:Catalan language|Catalan]], and Spanish, Montecolan has garnered interest from linguists due to its particularly distinct grammar, as well as various semantic and phonological innovations remarkably absent from nearby languages. Most linguists estimate that Montecolan diverged from the other Iberian languages around the time of the [[w:Reconquista|Reconquista]]. Its lexical base is composed primarily of inherited terms from [[w:Vulgar Latin|Vulgar Latin]], as well as loanwords from [[w:French language|French]] and Spanish, though Arabic loanwords are less present than in nearby languages. It is regulated by the Royal Montecolan Academy (''Reyal Acadimia Munticola'') situated in Coña Brava, established by David I the same year the language was made the only official language of the country.
