Spain is a country with a rich linguistic diversity, with five official languages recognized in its Constitution. In addition to Spanish, which is the official language throughout the country, there are four co-official languages in certain autonomous communities.

The four co-official languages recognized by the Spanish government are Catalan, Basque, Galician, and Valencian. These languages are recognized as official in different autonomous communities:

  • Catalan is the co-official language in Catalonia, the Balearic Islands, and Valencia.
  • Basque is the co-official language in the Basque Country and Navarre.
  • Galician is the co-official language in Galicia.
  • Valencian, a variety of Catalan, is the co-official language in Valencia.

The recognition of these co-official languages reflects Spain's commitment to linguistic and cultural diversity, and the autonomous communities have established their own language policies to promote and protect these languages.
