Extremaduran Language

Extremaduran (autonym: estremeƱu, ) is a Romance language, spoken by several hundred thousand people in Spain, in an area covering the north-western part of the autonomous community of Extremadura and adjoining areas in the province of Salamanca. It is difficult to establish the boundary between the Extremaduran and the Spanish dialects spoken in most of Extremadura. Most common people in Spain are not aware of its existence and consider it a dialect of Spanish.

Famous quotes containing the word language:

    A president, however, must stand somewhat apart, as all great presidents have known instinctively. Then the language which has the power to survive its own utterance is the most likely to move those to whom it is immediately spoken.
    J.R. Pole (b. 1922)
