Default The Andalucian Dialect

Andalucía has no more reason to feel left out. Here's an introduction from the 'Sociedad Para el Estudio del Andaluz', or rather,
Zoziedá pal Ehtudio'el Andalú :

Kién zomoh
En la Zoziedá pal Ehtudio’el Andalú (Z.E.A.) z’ahuntan un grupo’e perzonah de diferente formazión umaníhtika (filolohía, antropolohía, ihtoria, ehz.) ke biben endentro i huera d’Andaluzía i ke komparten una mihma preokupazión por er patrimonio linguíhtiko de nuehtra tierra.
Zuh z’ohetiboh irmediatoh zon: luxà enkontra’e loh prehuizioh k'otabía difikurtan el uzo normá del andalú, perkurà er rekonozimiento zoziá i ihtituzioná i entangariyà lah herramientah prezizah pa zu zehlío literario.
Lah tareah bázikah de l@h integranteh de la Zoziedá zon: ehtudià to lo referío a loh diferenteh dialehtoh andaluzeh, aprendè, ehparrià u difundì loh konozimientoh ezihtenteh i kontribuì −aht’ande zea pozible− a dezanxà i enrezià la konzenzia linguíhtika de zuh ablanteh. Azinah pueh, zuh laboreoh prenzipaleh zerán:

If it were in Basque the likelihood is that you'd recognise absolutely nothing!!

"Euskeraz esan baginun ezer ez zinun aitzuko!!" which is the translation of the above in Basque.

eskerrik asko (thank you!)

I recognise the word asko, but you have spelt it wrong.

you had me running to the Basque dictionary to double check!! No bad thing.

I'm sorry, but it does say "asko" & not azko which you may have thought. In fact azko doesn't exist in Basque, at least not in the dictionary!

Sorry it was a joke of mine.

I dont know the first thing about the Basque language, but ASCO means dirty,disgusting, disgust etc. in Spanish.

Cheers JL

No problem. Yes, asco tends to be heard a lot here, such as "que asco". Such as when I've explained about problems lambing ewes for instance!
Basque is pretty difficult, to say the least; they reckon that it's possibly the original Iberian language spoken in this area, Cantabria & what is now Gascony.
The only word Basque has given other languages is "bizarra" (bizarre)which means beard, & presumably at a time when beards were weird!

Franco forbade them to speak it, which still rankles among some people. Hence their suspicion of PP, etc.
My wife, as a 5 year old was told by a nun in school to "speak Christian" (ie Spanish)!
