Valencian Language

Valencian is a variety of the Catalan language spoken in the Valencian Community of Spain. It shares grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation with Catalan, but has its own regional accent, some unique words, and cultural expressions. Valencian is recognized as an official language alongside Spanish in the region, used in education, media, and government. It reflects the area's history and cultural identity, serving as a vital part of Valencian heritage. While linguistically part of Catalan, many speakers view Valencian as a distinct language due to local traditions and identity.
