You missed one language, Valencian, it’s what they speak in Valencia
@@crazydog4626 In Valencia people refer to the province as comunidad Valenciana and to the language as Valenciano. Ask person that speaks Catalan, and they will say that it is almost the same as Catalan. Ask person from Valencia and they will say that it's a language on its own. That is my experience.

Catalan is not closer to Portuguese. It's closer to French. The Galician language is closer to Portuguese. In fact, some say it's the same language
He prolly edited it wrong and meant to put that before galician but messed up

Eu son galego e Alvaro ten razón.
Im Galician, and i can confirm Galician isnt The same language as portuguese. But they are near because they both happened from the Galician-Portuguese
The simple fact of mere existence of the Basque language never stops to astound me
Basque language and people are a living treasure. I'm Spanish but not Basque, but I love Basque people since they contributed a lot into Iberian and Spanish history an they are the only native Iberian people that still live today. They're also the only ancient Europeans that still live today, even predating Indo-Europeans. Basically, Spanish was born by Basque people speaking in their vulgar version of Latin, and they contributed a lot into our grammar, phonetic and vocabulary. Most of the singularities that Iberoromance languages like Spanish or Portuguese have, that are not present in other romance languages, they come from Basque like patronimyc surnames ending in -ez, in Spanish, or -es in Portuguese

I was born in the Basque Country, near Bilbao. I learnt euskera (Basque) in school, incredible ancient language, quite difficult to learn, more than Spanish. But it has amazing words. It's true an onomatopoeic language and some of the words have a very cool meaning: yes, there are almost a hundred words to say butterfly and some others like:
In Basque we don’t say “In love” , we say “maiteminduta” which menas “hurt by love”.
In Basque we don’t say “cancer”, we say “minbizia” which means “intense pain”.
In Basque we don’t say “give birth”, we say “erditu” which means “divide by two”.
In Basque we don’t say “moon” we say “Ilargi” which means “the light of the dead”.
In Basque we don’t say “desert”, we say “basamortu”, which means “dead forest”.
In Basque we don’t say “free”, we say “musutruk” which means “in exchange of a kiss”
In Basque we don’t say policeman, we say "ertzain", which means “keeper of the people”.
In Basque we don’t say kitchen, we say "sukalde", which means “beside the fire”.
In Basque we don’t say relationship, we say "harreman", which means “take and give”.
In Basque we don’t say nurse, we say "erizain", which means “carer of the sick”.
In Basque we don’t say beach, we say "hondartz", which means “lots of sand”.
In Basque we don’t say curiosity, we say "jakinmin", which means “pain for knowing”.
In Basque we don’t say boat, we say "itsasontzi", which means “sea container”.
In Basque we don’t say shoes, we say "oinetakoak", which means “the ones of the feet”.
Very Ancient language..More examples:"have sex" is "larrua jo" which literally means "hit the fur"."Cemetery" is "ilerri"which literally means "town of the dead".

My parents moved to Galicia in the 80s and we lived there until I was 5 so we spoke Gallego with our neighbours, schoolfriends etc but English at home. Beautiful part of the world, lovely people too. 🏴❤🇪🇸

El Rey Alfonso que aparece en el 1:40 está equivocado. Aparece Alfonso XIII, cuando el rey medieval que promocionó el uso del castellano fue Alfonso X "El Sabio"
5:44 right King Alfonso (Alfonso X the Wise)
1:40 wrong King Alfonso (Alfonso XIII the Dumb?)
Y las fechas citadas a 1:40 también se equivocan. Alfonso el Sabio nació in 1221 y se murió en 1284.
He pensado lo mismo
@@ehhe4381 Fun fact, Alfonso XIII «the African» wasn't dumb at all. I mean, he was one of the very first directors of pornographic movies of Spanish History
Sí, todo mal, porque además habla del Reino de León medieval llamándolo Provincia, que no solo es un término distinto sino completamente anacrónico, y en el mapa pone la actual Comunidad Autónoma de Castilla y León, que no se corresponde con el reino medieval.
Basque is spoken more by young people than old people, because in the Basque Country today many students can learn in bilingual schools, with some subjects in Spanish and others in Basque, or in Basque-monolingual schools, where Spanish is just one subject, like English. Old people didn't have access to education in Basque, so the only people who learned Basque were those who had parents that spoke it at home.
I love minority languages and Basque is absolutely on my list
Such an interesting language
@JCK95 it's also really difficult because it's a language isolate and it has a ton of cases
Galicians should learn from you
@@lxportugal9343 Bretons too !
I love this! Typically when you hear about minority languages in countries where it isn’t the official language, it usually is pretty sad and no one speaks it. Case it point Irish Gaelic. People learn it in school but most forget it by the time they become adults and honestly it’s a shame because even with the current revival efforts, I don’t think it’s enough. However, as you say Basque has been adopted by many young people creating a true renaissance of the language!
Fun fact, "aran" means valley in Basque, so the Aran valley is a redundancy. When the non basque speakers went there and asked how was it called they responded aran and so has it stayed till the present day.
And it is a very fitting name, because La Vall d'Aran is a valley made up of valleys
Much like the river Avon.
In de middle age the basque kingdom arrived near the eastern Pyrenees, some villages in the Cerdanya have curious names as Urtx, Err, Das, Urús... There is a mountain called Bassagoda that perhaps comes from de basque word Basagoiti.
Es un "tautopónimo"
Catalan and Castillan are not different because of actual words. The structure is different. Castillan (Spanish) is a Romance Iberic language. Catalan is a Romance Occitan language, much more similar to Southern France native languages, and quite similar to Gallo-Italic languages of Northern Italy. I'm from Lombardy, my grandma talked to me in lombard and when I got to Catalonia, Catalan emerged in me with zero effort. I felt as if I already had it inside. Nowadays, when I speak Spanish, everybody spots my foreign accent. When I speak Catalan, I'm just one of them. I could be a perfect spy... 😄
I'm Catalan, and I've been to Italy several times, I could see how easy it was for me to understand people, especially in the north of Italy. I worked for an Italian company in Milan with a branch in Barcelona, and all the Italians who came to Barcelona always said that Catalan sounded very familiar to them, much more than Castilian-Spanish. So I can say that you are right and it seems that it is as easy for us to understand you as it is for you to understand us.
Makes sense for me as a astur-leones (and Castilian Spanish) speaker is very easy to understand Galician for example but Catalonian is a bit more difficult, specially written
Makes sense for me but in another way, im from Andalucia and I understand italian from the south better (than from the north of Italia)
Many of us, Catalans, believe that Oc and Catalan (even Aragones) are the same language, just with variations.
@@catnaz Actually it's also a matter of shades/transitional dialectology: Catalan language is itself divided between Eastern (Empordà, Barcelone, plane de Vich, Girone, etc.) and Western (Terres de Lleide [not the artificial province, but what in Catalan is known as Terres de Ponent, my paternal grandfather's fatherland], Western Pyrenees, Tortosa region, Montsià and Ulldecona). Western Catalan has frontier with Aragonese language's dialects (I mean the ones that are not extinct yet), and the transitional dialect between the two are the Chapurriau dialects of Western Catalan. Likewise, Tortosa/Montsià region (Catalonia) and Maestrat/Ports de Morelle region (Valencian Country) make a single transitional dialect uniting Western Catalan and Valencian (which has also its own dialects [Horta's Valencian, etc.]).

Most of Spanish speakers can understand Portuguese because they present a common origin, Latin. Any speaker of Asturian, Galician, Aragonese, Catalan or Spanish can... Galician and Asturian are closer, but we can communicate easily.

I'm a basque native speaker. I have to say the example you put on the video is not a native speaker but it's understable. Also I was impresed when you showed the ways to say butterfly because 'kalaputxi' is the way we say it in my town and we only live 5000 people here. I am shocked. 😂😂.

As a Brazilian who has been to Galicia and Portugal a few times, I could not agree more that Galician is way easier to Brazilians understand than European Portuguese on a first listen.

And not only galician. Brasilian portuguese is way more similar to spanish than Portugal portuguese too. Is quite interesting how the portuguese change that much between Brasil and Portugal, if im not mistaken brasilian is closer to ancient portueguese, there was an important schism between them some centuries ago.
Just a side note: The first lady who speaks in català is from the Balear Islands (Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza...) Their accent is very unique, a frozen in XVth century català. Similar to what icelandic is for old norge since they are islands. Even for us, their vocalism can be incredibly difficult to catch before you get used to it. We also have Astur-leonés (spoken in Asturias, near Galicia) and aragonés or fabla aragonesa (in Aragón, near Catalunya).
Edit: I used the therm _bable_ to name astur-leonés being absolutely unawared of its subtext. Corrected thanks to César Santiago😊.
Bable is like a bad way to say asturian, leonese or astur-leones(they are the same), after the dictatorship it was seem as bad to speak this language (and it keep being like that now a days) it's very common in some parts of León that people can speak it but you won't hear it in the streets because of that
What about this variety of 'Balear' (guest)...
ruclips.net/video/ZHjaQxZGnd8/видео.html
How can you say that the accent of the catalan of Balear islands is a catalan frozen since the xvi century? Did you heard someone of that time speaking? Written words are not even more conservative in general...
Ostras! Y cuando fue? Porque las Baleares pertenecieron al reino Aragonés. Jaime I de Aragón " El conquistador" o" El Batallador"
Lo increíblemente dicifil de pillar, son acentos cerrados, como pueden ser los andaluces y algunos de Extremadura o incluso de las Islas Canarias que suelen emitir fonemas al final de sus palabras, pero digas que un acento aragonés, madrileño, o leones son difíciles de pillar da a entender que poco te has relacionado y movido por España
Regarding the fact that Basque did not have an alphabet before the arrival of the Romans, an archaeological object from the s was discovered a few months ago. I b.c (a bronze hand) in which at least one Basque word appears in an Iberian sign. It has been called "The Hand of Irulegi" and it greatly changes the way we understand our culture and history. Greetings from a Basque.

There's also a language in Asturias and the northern part of the Province of León called "asturleonés", "asturiano" or "bable" and another language in Aragón called "aragonés". I don't know their official stattuses, but these languages have their own regulatory agencies.
@@Elasturiano33 El asturiano es muy diferente entre sí, pero comparten una base, pero son dialectos del castellano. Macho, aclárate.
Y no veo qué hay de malo en establecer una norma. Toda lengua que busque respeto debe tener un estándar. Y en este sentido, el estándar del asturleonés no es menos inventado y artificioso que el del castellano.
Asturian-Leonese is called in Asturias Asturiano and in Leon Leones, the oldest writing of this language is the "Nodicia de Kesos" in the early Middle Ages and was written in Leon, by the way, it is also spoken in some parts of the rest Leones country like some places in Salamanca and Zamora, even in Extremadura and Tras Os Montes (Miranda do Douro).
It is also its own language, it exists before Spanish existed because it is a diasystem, it is the language of the kingdom of Leon and the largest part of the medieval epics and city charters were written in this language. By the way, leones or asturleones is not a dialect of Spanish, if anything it is the other way around, and calling it Bable is something derogatory, offensive or insulting.
@@Elasturiano33supongo que eres del este si pero pero ya en Cantabria.
¡Manda cojones que "un asturianu" llame a so fala "dialecto" , lo dicho serás de Cantabria
They are both dialects, not languages. We have some others in Spain, some of the portuguese and galician and we had several villages in Galicia were ancient people spoke breton as we got two great migrations from french breton people in two occasions in 6th and 11th centuries.
When I was sixteen (many years ago), I was an exchange student in Bilbao with a proud Basque family! Until then, I had never even heard of the Basque. I'm still very close to my exchange sister. So the language & people have a special place in my heart. - We also visited Barcelona when I lived there, and I thought Catalan was a beautiful language.
In Aragon there are in fact two co-official languages apart from Castilian Spanish. A unique form of Catalan (chapurriau) is spoken along the border with Catalonia, which we call “la franja” (the stripe). And up north, in the Pirineos, some people still speak Aragones in many different dialects, each one from a different valley or region (Jaca, Ansó, Hecho, Valle de Tena, Ribagorza… and many others).
Its true that these languages are spoken there but sadly they aren't co-official
@@unaicanudas cooficiales si son dentro de Aragón
@@Merry19ss Sólo son cooficiales si los reconoce como tal el estatuto de autonomía, y no es el caso
Yo he estado en aragon multitud de veces y como no te vayas a un pueblo de la frontera nadie sabe

I learned Spanish, Portuguese, and then studied Catalan for several months, and a little Galician. I also lived in all the places where native speakers of these languages are located. This video is right up my alley. Stoked you mentioned Val D'Aran, and although I have heard of Aranese I had never actually heard it spoken. Music to my ears!

Aranese is official in that area of Catalonia, there are at least 13 native languages in Spain.

If you listen to a grandma from Galicia, and a grandma from Minho (north west region os Portugal) you can hardly see the difference.
My grandmother was from a village in the heart of Minho, where she was born in the beginning of XX century, and her language and accent were very clearly different from the ones i heard from Galician old ladies.
I´m Galician from almost the border of Portugal and you´re rigth! the accent of the elderly sound very similar!😊
@@andreguimaraes697 Talvez fosse separada pelo rio Minho pois em áreas da Raia Seca a diferença é quase inexistente (talvez tirando o uso mais frequente de "x" do lado galego ou uma redução vocálica ligeiramente menor).
Que gran esfuerzo has hecho. No es nada habitual que un angloparlante se ocupe de estos temas. Bien por ti y tus seguidores! Hay mucho que puntualizar, seguro, pero tu esfuerzo merece reconocimiento. Saludos!
Honestly, as a Basque speaker, I am glad that there is a standard language for all of us, because besides the fact that the dialects are divided by provinces, many towns also contain their own dialect, and from experience I can guarantee that it is not easy to understand people with different dialects😅
I would also like to share an interesting fact about the word "ikastola" because even if it refers to the school, these are schools where teaching is mainly given in Basque. However, if they are schools where students are taught in Spanish or in some other language, we call them "eskola".
Finally, I would like to thank you for the great interest that you and other people have in Basque. It makes me very happy to know that there are people outside the country who want to know about this language and talk about it to other people. Eskerrik asko! 😊
Suerte Ondarruko bat edo Mauleko bat ulertzen
I still remember those years when you could only learn basque in ikastola and were really expensive. It´s a pity my eskola didn´t taught us althought you always speak some words. Gasteiz has not been pretty interested in this things but in the other hand nobody cared nor used it as a way to treat you different. I would like to re-learn again so doesn´t get lost (and not feel like a traitor 😅)
@@Kipperlab No one spoke 'Basque' ever in Alava/Vitoria. It's more 'Castille' than 'Basque'

My dad is Spanish so luckily I am fluent. When I went to Spain each summer I used to love reading the TV Guides as it would have all the regional channels and Basque and Catalan fascinated me. This has given me impetus to maybe learn Basque. Why the hell not. San Sebastian is my favourite city so could be a good idea! Great vid 👍
I am 16 years old and realized that I have a pasion for learning languages especially the not so wiledly spoken ones my first languge that I learned apart from German, English and Italian which I have in school is basque I impressed the locals in the basque country there they were suprised when they heard that I learned basque in 7 months I am aleady at a B1 level and I can hold a badic conversation on almost any topic.

As a native basque (or euskalduna as we say) I find this to be a very well documented content, not as an in depth piece but a very well roundedintroduction to the topic. I will only point one thing out as not correct which is ancient basque not having its own writing system (check Irulegiko eskua or hand of Irulegi in English).
Irulegiko eskua writing system looks like a bit like runes but I guess for most early writing systems it's easier to carve lines than it is to make curves.
Silbo Gomero isn't the only whistle language in Spain. There's also Silbo Herreño, from the neighbouring island of El Hierro
Ferreño .....
One fun fact is that the Val d'Aran's name and all of its derivatives come from the Basque word "haran" which literally means valley. This is because in ancient times Basque spread far beyond its current borders.
Val d'aran is not catalan it's aranese
@@aldozilli1293 They didn't say it was catalan, not even us catalans say its catalan. La Vall d'Aran is a gascon territory under the protectorate of Catalonia
@@RoderickVI You are right.
And Gascon is a dialect of Occitan, so Aranès is a variant or modality of the Occitan language.
You'll like to know that in North-West Catalonia there is a town called El Pont de Suert, 'el pont' meaning 'bridge' in Catalan and 'suert' aparently meaning 'bridge' in ancient Basque. Actually, throughout the Catalan Pyrenees there's plenty of place names of Basque origin, like Er, Esterri...
They are only dialects that politicians elevate to languages, nothing more.
I m Sri-Lankan, Galicien is very nice to hear, after Catalan accent I like most..I want to learn Spanish
Im Argentinian, my grandmother was Asturian and she spoke Spanish and some Asturian, but when i started researching my family tree i found her family was originally from Guipuzkoa in the Basque Country! it was a nice find
Please consider also these two still-non-official languages: asturian (or asturleonese) and aragonés
I don't know how the hell have I ended up here but once again, very proud of calling myself a basque and speaking Euskera since I was a kid. Obviously, if You don't practice It like any other thing in the world, the vocabulary and the ability to articulate sentences get very rusty but perfectly capable of understanding any conversation or watching/listening the tv/radio.

Olly, your videos on language learning are always top-notch and incredibly helpful. Thank you for shedding light on the diversity of languages in Spain and their unique features. I would love to see a video from you on the Berber language, also known as Tamazight. As one of the most widely spoken languages in North Africa, it has a rich history and fascinating linguistic features. It would be interesting to explore its various dialects and the conflicts it has faced with Arabic, which has largely displaced it in many regions. Keep up the amazing work!
Your curiosity is a phenomenon of admiration. Nice video, greetings from Barcelona.
For those people interested in the Basque language. Here is a native with a C2 level in Basque. The standardization of the language by Euskaltzaindia or the Basque language academy in 1968 is not an artificial Frankenstein construction totally different from dialects as some people in Spain like to say. It is a record of Basque necessary for its survival as a current language above all and also for its modernization, prestige, and brotherhood with the rest of Basque speakers. Due to this, it is interpreted as a risk for Spanish ultra nationalists. Not fortunately for the majority of Spaniards. It is a homogenization of the language based above all on the dialects with the greatest literary tradition, the central dialects such as Guipuzcoan, Upper Navarrese and Navarro -Lapurdian. It is very versatile so each region adapts the standard language to its dialect, and in turn allows intercomprehension since above all standardization is verbal, not lexical. Current Spanish is also a result whose origins lie in the standardization of Nebrija, in the 15th century. It was the first language to be homogenized. Look at the current German or Italian languages, whose standardization is also relatively modern, although for the most recalcitrant Spaniards that is not an impediment to respecting those languages.

Minha opinião a Espanha é similar á Inglaterra UK quer dizer reinos unidos são 4 nações com idiomas diferentes,por exemplo a lingua Iralandesa é diferente da lingua Inglêsa. A Espanha é igual Galiza Catalunha País Basco etc. idiomas diferentes e culturas diferentes. a Espanha para mim é só Castela.Galiza Catalunha País Basco são nações ocupadas por Castela atênção é a minha opinião.
My opinion Spain is similar to England UK means United Kingdoms are 4 nations with different languages, for example the Iralandic language is different from the English language. Spain is equal to Galicia Catalonia Basque country etc. different languages and different cultures. Spain for me is just Castile. Galiza Catalonia Basque Country are nations occupied by Castile Attention is my opinion.

First Christian kingdom to be born in the Iberian Peninsula was the kingdom of Asturias.
I’d love to see a “Short Stories in Catalan” book published.
You probably did a disservice to Asturian, with hundreds of thousands of speakers. It is still the mother tongue to many people who only learned Spanish as teens.
I don't want to disrespect Asturian and its speakers, but he was talking about co-official languages and Asturian is technically not one of them. It would be interesting if he did another video talking about the rest of the languages and dialects in Spain ~
@@begui2613 I never heard in all the video a reference to co-official languages.
@@elreyvd He said it in the beginning of the video (which btw, is why I don't understand why he included aranese, but anyway)
@@begui2613 My commentary was precisely because he included Aranese with less than 3,000 speakers, and not Asturian (about half a million).
@@begui2613Aranese is cooficial, Asturian isn't official (yet)
Very good. I am sorry to contradict your statement that Catalan is spoken in Valencia, since 1991 Valencian has been considered a co-official language along with Spanish, so there would be 6 languages spoken in Spain.
Eso!! En Valencia se habla el Valenciano
With regards to the antiquity of the Basque language, last year archeologists found a bronze plaque written in euskera from the I B.C century, which means the language it's even more ancient than what it was believed and also that there were written traces that have been lost. It's truly fascinating.
The examles of basque you chose werent the best. Both of them were Basque Americans, non native speakers, so it wasnt perfect. We appreciate the effort of course and invite you to learn or come to the basque country!
Andrew is a native speaker, he just speaks in an American euskalki, his family is from Bizkaia. ☺️
Excellent video. Very informative. I learned a lot. Your enthusiasm is contagious.
A few days ago, the President of Brazil visited Portugal and Spain. During a press conference, a Portuguese journalist asked him a question that he found difficult to understand. The next day, he had a conversation with the second Prime Minister of Spain, who is Galician. This conversation took place without the need for interpreters.
As a Brazilian, I found it a lot easier to understand Galicians than Portuguese people. This is because Galician is syllable-timed, just like Brazilian Portuguese. In contrast, Portuguese is stress-timed, which can make it harder for a Brazilian to follow.
Concordo contigo.
Galego se parece com um brasileiro falando "portuñol" hahah
The Portuguese journalist asked a question the President didn't want to answer giving that excuse 😅
But yes, I do agree with you still

A couple of interesting facts:
1. Basque was spoken all across the Pyrenees, from Aran Valley to the Atlantic. Actually, the word "Aran", means Valley in basque.
2. The way Castillan is pronounced in the current days, the 5 vowels system, is because the influence of the Basques. It is known Castilian Spanish emerged from the vulgar latin broken by the Basques. Castillian and basque have one particular thing in common, both are pronounced in the same way as you may read them: Aquelarre, Bacalao, Pacharán, Pelotari...
Muchas gracias por hacer este video.
Great video. Hopefully we'll see a part two which has Aragonese, Asturo-Leonese, and Mirandese, and maybe someday you'll touch on Mozarabic which is a fascinating language.
Me gusta aprender este idioma. Espero que estoy hablando este idioma perfectamente en mi futuro. Es mi sueno(sorry for my bad Spanish)
Don't sweet it dude, you did it great, speaking the people learn, good job 👌👌 in my case I don't native speaker English but in here trying to answer you in English, si gustas podemos contactarnos y así aprendes español y yo tú idioma que creo que es alemán.
you did perfect until now with the exception of your conjugation in the "Estar" verb. You wrote "estoy" and your phrase should have been: Espero que ESTÉ hablando este idioma...
I dont remember the verbal time name thingie so i cant tell you buuuuuut i can tell you this way: Take "Estar" and add a little bit of "Will/Werden" + "Would/Wurden"

Nice video! I love to see the lenguages of spain portrayed and documented! One thing to point out, in basque (i'm from alava and i speak euskera batua) exist "tx", "tz" and "ts" to make the "ch" sound. All of them have different tones and are used differently. Nevertheless, i like this video, very recommendable to lear about the spanish lenguages!
Great video, enjoyed the content. Thanks
Many Spanish people of Baque origin settled in the north of Mexico--Chihuahua. There are also Spanish words which are spoken in the north of Mexico which come from the Basque language.
I'm from Spain and I'm really happy you made a video which explains the different lenguages and dialects we have here in Spain. Thank you😁
I've been studying basque for more than 12 years and nowadays it's almost imposible (I started learning at 4 years old). By my experience I'ts the most difficult language of the world becaus there's no other language with similar words. Also, there are more than 100 ways to say the same verb. Example: I do -> I did> I done on basque there are much more: Egin dut -> Egin nuen -> Egin banu -> Egin nuke -> Egin nukeen... and very much more. Also, the verb changes complitely when the people of the sentence changes. (I can't explain very well because i don't know very well to speak English) :)
Btw: Good video :3
Another Basque native here! Something interesting to appoint is that for the "ch" we have 3 different types of sound: tz , ts and tx, each one pronounced slightly different.
Very good video. As I've been living in the province of Valencia for almost 30 years now, I don't only speak Spanish but have picked up Valencian as a language variant of Catalan, as well.
El catalán es la variante lingüística, no te equivoques.
No me apetece entrar en el tema.

Very interesting video. Great job!
This was awesome! Thank you so much for this! While I know Spanish and am learning Basque & Catalan, I did not know about Aranese or Romani, quite enlightening.
Really nice video! I'm Catalan and I love the variety of languages in Spain.
Only one little mistake: "què tal" is wrong as a translation of "how are you?". People who speak catalan usually use a lot of Castillianisms (words and idioms in Spanish used in Catalan), so in a good catalan we say "com va?" or "com estàs?" to say "how are you?". "Qué tal?" is good in Spanish, but not in Catalan.
They are only dialects that politicians elevate to languages, nothing more.
@@sandaw4312 please, explain what you mean?
@@sandaw4312 Les persones parlem dialectes. Ningú parla llengües només les que les aprenen com a 2na llengua, ... la resta parlem dialectes. Els parlars són dialectes ... els llibres són llengües.
De fet faríem servir nosaltres ... Com anem? Com estem? Com petem? Com girem? ...
Fun fact about Euskara, as you said in the video there are many kinds of dialects here, and they are so different from each other (two adjacent towns might have different dialects) that sometimes WE struggle to understand each other. A very simple example, I (from Gipuzkoa) would refer to Friday as Ostirala, and someone from Bizkaia would say Barikua; the way of pronouncing words and the entonation of the sentences is somewhat different too, so if I haven't had a conversation with someone from Bizkaia in a really long time, I need to make an effort to get certain parts of the chat. Funnily enough, even though we all understand Batua (standarized one), I wouldn't switch to it so that the ones from Bizkaia understand me, and vice versa, because everyone knows that it's such a diverse yet endangered language, that if we start loosing our origins the language might dissapear.
Similar situation in Asturias, in my town a type of bird is called Cuquiellu and in the next one is called Buhullu, and the tool used to spread compost is called Garabiellu in my town, but Querbiechu in the next one. Speakers usually don't like the Standard too and prefer not to use it.
Unfortunately most people speak with their regional accent but with a bunch of invented words adapted from spanish, even when there are many real basque words available.
I'm sick of listening to arbola instead of zuhaitz, for example...
Same can be said for the French Basque Country / Iparralde, where people speak in a Navarro-Lapurdin dialect (which is very close to the Gipuzkoan dialect) and Xiberoa dialect, which is basically the most radically different dialect of Basque that people from Bilbao and Baiona would have a hard time to understand.
Very good video buddy!! ❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Great job. Amazing effort to explain a reality many people ignore.
Catalan also writes the english "ch" with "tx" in the middle of words!
I first lived in the Basque Country (Euskadi) in 1994. Returning every few years since then, I can attest to the surge in it's use. Most children grow up now speaking Euskera as their first language. It's on the rise, and glorious to behold, GORA EUSKADI!
Les enseñan “batua”un Vasco un tanto artificial. La vieja lengua vasca tenía 8 dialectos, y muchos su dialectos.

Thanks for this Olly. Liked and subbed bro
You are really brave! Language is a controversial topic, and every one wants their dialect to be recognised as a language in Spain. As a Mallorquin speaker, i consider my dialect to be the oldest form of Catalan.
Controversial topic..... more clicks/views....
It has certainlyu conserved more old words than the mainland catalan, so it is sort of true.
Simplement ha evolucionat de manera diferent. En València també conservem molt de lèxic que s'ha perdut a Catalunya i Balears.

In the wikitongues example for euskara, he is speaking a Bizkaian dialect. I´m wondering if he is a member of the US Basque diaspora, because he says something about many basque amerians, and ´geure alkarteak dekoguz´, - we have our organizations. At any rate , his speech is pretty dialectal (berrorek!?, nork erabiltzen du hori? -Ez dinot iraintzearren☺) and not a great example of the standard language, Euskara Batua. That being said, I am very in favor of promoting and preserving all the euskalkiak (Basque dialects), as they too have their struggles in being preserved and maintained.
Also, the word for school is spelled ikastola. There´s no apostrophe.
Mila esker euskara erakusteagatik!! Than you for showcasing euskara!
Chaparral - Thicket .. the High Chaparral, 1967-1971 TV programme, the moment you mentioned "Chaparral" memories of this programme from my childhood came flooding back.
I love learning about Spain! Where I'm from it's just as interesting because we have hundreds of languages but our own education doesn't teach us much about them. There's also a confusion between dialects and languages
Brazilian here and yes, Galician is easier to understand than European Portuguese. I believe the reason for that is because European Portuguese underwent a vowel shift during its evolution whereas the Brazilian variety of Portuguese didn't mostly because of the geographic distance between Brazil and Portugal. Galician seems to maintain a lot of old vowels as well so the words are much more clearly pronounced than European Portuguese.
I was hoping for some aragonese, I love that one but these are pretty good options too.
The autonomy of Castilla y Leon is not called just Castilla, since it is made up of two regions, and in one of them Leon, made up of the provinces of Zamora, Leon and Salamanca, Leones or Asturleones are spoken, but it is a language that has not yet been It is co-official. This language is also spoken in Asturias, Miranda-Tras Os Montes in Portugal and part of Extremadura.

I personally find Asturian very interesting. Not sure why, but I do.
Puxa Llión ya puxa Asturies
Usually outsiders (or even people from here) don't care or even know about our language, it's cool to see a foreigner be interested. I speak central asturianu.
that's cool! It's a shame a lot of asturian people don't care about it and are happy seing it die. I speak Central-Eastern asturianu.
I think Ladino, a.k.a. Judeo Spanish, would have been a great honorable mention. Similar enough to Castilian, but different enough to be ranked among the others in this video. Like some of those you mentioned, there are very few speakers today, however, they are not found in Spain, as a result of the expulsion of the Sephardic Jews. And yet, the language still exists! God willing perhaps there will be a revival of that as well, si kere el Dio.
Is Ladino still spoken today? It was the language of the Jews, settled in the Ottoman Empire after being expelled from Spain with the highest concentation of Jews in Thessaloniki, who were all deported in WWII.
@@kamion53 Not an expert here, but as far as I know there are still a few speakers left in Istanbul. Once I met a Spanish girl who was approached by a speaker of Ladino when she heard her speaking Spanish in a bus in Istanbul. And Radio Nacional de España broadcasts a weekly podcast in Ladino called 'Emisión en sefardí'.
dawahaddict the Jews from Ceuta and Melilla, two Spanish exclaves, speak haketia, the North African dialect of Ladino
Ladino is spoken in Israel and is old Spanish. But quite understandable for us. They have a national jewish-spanish academy to rule this language. Akademia nasionala del Ladino. In Spanish Academia nacional del Ladino. For a spanish hear someone speaks ladino is like travel to our middle ages.
@@kamion53 It is, but not in Spain.

Here in the Philippines we call Spanish people and language Kastila (Castilian)
Sure. Renember that conqueror role at ibrerian península when the moorish kingdom of Granada was fallen it was the Kingdom of Castile.
Four kingdom former Spain (Castile, Lion, Navarre and Aragon) and before The union of kingdoms it was 5 peninsular kingdoms (Portugal, Castile, Navarre and Aragon)
The basque version teached today at the ikastola is a mixed artificial compound built by politicians and some experts after Franco passed by. It cannot be called Euskera anymore or not a true Euskera. Its name is "Batua" that can be understood as unified or joined.
Was built from the different Euskeras spoken at the mountains, valleys and coasts, adding words addapted from other lenguages and unifying and formalizing grammar.
Fortunatelly the true Euskera still survives out of the cities, spoken by a few that truly love tradition and culture. That young people, Batua speakers, that are supposed to be the supporters of our lenguage, are with the best intention leading Euskera to its end.
Anyway thats better than the total extinction.
It's better that what happens in León where we don't even have the opportunity to have a oficial language because we don't have autonomy
i studied batua, nowadays my niece is learning biscayan, my sister learnt batua too, but at her work learnt even to talk to people from Bermeo that speak a different dialect than batua. bit by bit, word by word, even we all know that a lot of words are not the real ones, that are artificial because sabino arana, etc.. at least people still uses this language. I'm sorry that i don't use it anymore, and my kids maybe some day would learn euskera just for the aim of knowing some culture, as we live in another place were we have another language too.,
My understanding is that the goal of batua was that all euskara speakers would understand it. So that someone learning batus could communicate with anybody speaking any dialect of euskara. Whether that goal was achiebmved ir not,, I don't know....
Im from the mountains of nothern Navarra (Nafarroa). May be batua could be partially understood by youngers, but people as my grandfather would get almost nothing. Its not only a matter of words, but of grammar and lntonation.
Batua, as the first eukera speaker in the video, sounds sooo robotic.
Its worth mentioning that Castillian spanish got its phonetics from Euskera (widely spoken at Iberia before Romans arrival), thats why it sounds so different than other romance lenguages.
Soy español y me gustó mucho el vídeo, keep like that mate
This is EXCELLENT 🔥🔥🔥
When you put the map of Castille, it wasn't Castille, that was Castille AND Leon, it's a community with 2 regions, one is Leon (where you can find leonese language in some villages) and the other is Castille
Out of CL we all say Castille which is short for CL
Practicamente el reino de Leon existio primero luego castilla abosrbio todo el poder y empezaron a cambiar el Leones por el castellano
5:10 As a matter of fact, "no" in Galician isn't "nom", but it's actually "non"

As a Galician speaker, I would say, we are saddened to learn about the most recent polls on the current usage of Galician, it suffered a lot and bore the brunt troughtout the centuries, the youth refuse to use it, the elderly does use it, but, you know how it goes...
I, as a language learner, I ADORE languages, and more than that I EMBRACE foreign cultures and its people and seing most of Galicians disliking the language and the culture its really painful.
We seek help for the language, the goverment doesn't seem to be helping, and everyone ignores it, we fear that it is dissapearing.
Thank you for making this video Olly, your content is great and I should say, I applaud your knowledge on foreign languages, you are one of the most inpiring people I've ever came across on the internet.
