Useful information:   -  OUR LANGUAGE
 

Spanish and Valencian (the local language) coexist officially in Valencia.
It's not very common for the inhabitants of the city to speak Valenciano. On the contrary, it's in the sorrounding towns where it is most used, apart from in almost all towns on the coast, specially those nearer from Castellón and Alicante. Most of the  towns in the interior (in the direction of Cuenca or Madrid), such as Requena or Utiel constitute the entirely Spanish-speaking area of the Comunidad Valenciana. They are zones where practically only Spanish is spoken.

Any tourist who visits us and speaks Spanish, will be able to communicate without problems. Likewise, visitors from Catalunya and Mallorca can speak  their mother tongue.

Following, you will find some of the most usual expressions translated to valenciano from English and Spanish, which you will be able to use in you next visit to our Comunidad:
