Asturien

The asturien ( asturianu in the own language), known also under the names of asturo-léonais , astur-léonais or bable , is a spoken language in the Asturies, an autonomous community of the North of the Spain, like in certain parts of the provinces of León, Zamora and Salamanca (where one calls the language the léonais - llionés ). Even if the language is spoken by almost 600.000 people, it does not have the recognition of “official language”. In the Portuguese area of Miranda C Douro (or Miranda of L Douro ) one speaks also an alternative about the asturien , the Mirandais ( mirandés or mirandês ) which has the statute of second official language of Portugal since 1999.

Writing

The asturien is written by means of the Latin alphabet. In 1981, the Académie of the Language Asturienne ( Academia of Llingua Asturiana ) promulgated orthographical standards, largely inspired by those of the Castillan. The Mirandais has since 2000 a specific orthographical convention, nearer to the orthography of the Portuguese with which it divides certain features of pronunciation.
