1. Match up: Aragonese vs. Spanish: Aragonese is a language spoken in Aragon Spain, a region in the northeast by the Pyrenees. It is very distinct in its history. It used to be the Kingdom of Aragon and maybe you remember Catherine of Aragon who married King Henry VIII but wouldn’t give him a male child. Watch the Tudors. Anyway Aragon is a very district history and even though Spanish is preferred some people in the region still speak a distinct language. So let’s listen to it. I’ll give it a ranking 1-5 to see how much I understand 1 being nothing and 5 being everything.
2. Match up: Ladino (Judaeo-Spanish) vs. Spanish. I am actually very excited about the next language. Ladino or Judeo Spanish is very close to me. You see, in 1492 the Queen of Spain kicked out all Jewish people out of Spain, mainly to the Ottoman Empire. My family are actually direct descendants from Sephardic Jews expelled during this time. I am not the only one, also congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez reveals in an interview during Hanukah. The language has been influenced by Hebrew and Aramaic loanwords. I don’t speak the language. This is actually the first time hearing it.
3. Match up: Galician vs. Spanish. So our next language is Galician. And the first time I heard of Galicia was from jokes. Spanish people usually make jokes about the people from Galicia. I really don’t know why. It seems like a great place. Galician and Portuguese were actually 1 language, so I am very curious to see how this one goes. Galician was actually banned by Franco and after Spain return to democracy it flourished into a great literary tradition!
