Valencian Linguistic Academy

The Valencian Linguistic Academy (Acadèmia Valenciana de la Llengua or AVL) is an official organization responsible for regulating and promoting the Valencian language, a variant of Catalan spoken in the Valencian Community of Spain. Its role includes establishing linguistic norms, ensuring consistent spelling and grammar, and supporting the use of Valencian in education, media, and public life. The AVL aims to preserve the cultural identity of Valencian speakers while fostering language development and integration with the broader Catalan-speaking community.
