    abstract = "We propose a map of cognates and borrowings usage in Romance languages, having as a starting point the pairs of cognates and borrowings between any two of these idioms from RoBoCoP, the largest database built upon electronic dictionaries containing etymological information for Portuguese, Spanish, French, Italian and Romanian. Having in mind that words are used and evolve in language communities over time, on the basis of the pairs extracted from RoBoCoP, we determine how many of them occur and with what frequency in the context of the languages in use, based on three online parallel corpora that contain all five Romance languages: Wikipedia, Europarl {--} focusing on proceedings of the European Parliament and RomCro2.0 {--} containing literary texts in different languages, translated in Romance languages and Croatian."
