User:Rgk50/Aragonese language
Romance language / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aragonese (/ˌærəɡɒˈniːz/; aragonés [aɾaɣoˈnes] in Aragonese), sometimes referred to as fabla or patués, is an endangered language originally spoken by the people of Aragon, located within modern day Spain. The amount of native speakers is currently up for debate, but it is generally agreed upon to be around ten and eleven thousand native speakers.The decline in speakers of the language is mainly attributed to the replacement of the language to Spanish in education and the media, the migration away from rural areas, less transmission between generations, new people moving to native regions, and tourism. In recent years, there have been pushes to preserve, and bring the language back to life.
