And as a sidenote, I’m not aware of there EVER being a language called “Roman.”

So what? So it was Latin, yet no one knows today what the original Roman language sounded like, they can only guess. The various dialects spoken in Italy and the world today, is the slang language of the common people, not anyway close to the original taught in schools.
