BASQUE LANGUAGE
The Basque language is the oldest living language of Europe. It is said our language, Basque, was spoken 20,000 years ago while the Indo-European languages are about 8000 years old, so nobody knows where to put it. It is an isolated language.
Nowadays the Basque language is spoken in the seven lands of Basque Country: three in France (Lapurdi, Nafarroa Behera, and Zuberoa) and four in Spain (Araba, Bizkaia, Gipuzkoa and Nafarroa) but it hasn't the same status because it is not an official language in all the territories.
There are about three millions (3,000,000) of people living in the Basque Country and only about one million are speakers of Basque, "euskaldunok," which means people whom use the Basque language. People whom speak Basque language.
