The Spanish language is also called
"castellano", which comes from one of the Spanish regions
with the name "Castilla", where it was spoken first.
In
Spain there are some other languages similar to the Spanish language
spoken, such as "catalán", "valenciano", "gallego"
y "vasco", but Spanish is the official one. Especially
in Barcelona, Bilbao and in some towns of Galicia, people usually
speak their regional languages, even if they understand the Spanish
language.
In Malaga people speak the Spanish language with a small
accent called "andaluz", which means basically that the
"s" and some word suffixes are not pronounced.
At Academia
AIFP you will learn "castellano" but we will also give
you an insight in the Andalusian accent and even show you how Spanish
is spoken in Latin America.
La Real Academia Española
is the official institution taking care of the Spanish language
in Spain. It was founded in 1713 by Juan Manuel Fernández Pacheco
and constituted in 1714 by the king Felipe V.
