Tough choices!Luiz Harahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15625648237398242154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4620769829682448740.post-79634462071661039412017-10-04T21:40:42.236+01:002017-10-04T21:40:42.236+01:00Just a few points.

It’s true that it was the first but there are quite a few now, Eidosela brut nature from the Condado subzone is another good example of “Atlantic bubbles”. :-) Galego is a language rather than a dialect. In Spain there four officially recognised languages: castellano, catalá, euskera and galego. Castellano is also known as español, particularly in Spanish America. The historic and cultural capital of Galicia and seat of the regional parliament is Samtiago de Compostela. Vigo is admittedly the largest city in Galicia but the provincial capital is Pontevedra.

Santiago de Compostela is the capital. Gallego is not a dialect but a proper language on its own at the same level of Portuguese and Spanish. Apart of these two little things i really like the article!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4620769829682448740.post-25185517001668663072017-10-03T13:46:35.821+01:002017-10-03T13:46:35.821+01:00Now what shall I do?
