Spanish Valencian Language

The Valencians are very proud of the fact that they have their own language which is different to the rest of Spain.  Even in the Town Hall of Javea meetings are conducted in Valencian.  Schools are still teaching in Valencian and even the cinema sub titles can be seen in Valencian.

Here are some words in Valencian to impress the locals if you come on holiday to Javea.
