Endangered Languages Project

Some people wish to consider the differences between Asturian and the varieties spoken in Cantabria, Spain as distinct enough to merit special consideration.

KOMMENTARE ZUM SPRACHKONTEXT

Though not recognized as official, the language is to some extent used in the
school system in Asturias.

ORTE: Asturias, Oviedo, Portugal, Miranda do Douro

WEITERE KOMMENTARE: "Asturian survives mainly in Asturias around Oviedo (Uviéu) where some children learn the language, and to much lesser extent in the western parts of León Province (Leonese) and in the Sanabria region in Zamora Province (Sanabrese) in the autonomous region of Castille-León, where probably all speakers are elderly. In Portugal, the language is spoken in the Miranda do Douro region and in two towns in the Vimioso region by some 10,000 to 15,000 people; it was officially recognised there in 1999, and it has gained some presence in education, media and public life since then" (Salminen 2007)
