castanyes blaves
Random ramblings about some random stuff, and things; but more stuff than things -- all in a mesmerizing and kaleidoscopic soapbox-like flow of words.9/14/2004
Two better than one
The Spanish government has sent a petition to the EU to include Catalan, Galician, Basque and Valencian as official languages.
The scientific community has always expressed their conclusions onto that Valencian is the same language as Catalan. But for political reasons, Valencian was given the recognition in Spain of being a different language than Catalan one year ago.
Now, with the petition to the EU, some political parties argue that the petition for Catalan AND Valencian is like trying to officialize the same language twice. Well, in this case, two better than one, if only to get it done and everybody happy!
