Spanish language
In Spain and in some other parts of the Spanish-speaking world, Spanish is called not only (Spanish) but also (Castilian), the language from the kingdom of Castile, contrasting it with other languages spoken in Spain such as Galician, Basque, Asturian, Catalan, Aragonese and Occitan.
Languages in censuses
In Catalonia, Aranese ("aranés"), a local variety of the Occitan language, has been declared co-official along with Catalan and Spanish since 2006. It is spoken only in the "comarca" of "Val d'Aran" by roughly 6,700 people. Other Romance minority languages, though not official, have special recognition, such as the Astur-Leonese group (Asturian, "asturianu"; also called ""bable"", in Asturias and Leonese, "llionés", in Castile and León) and Aragonese ("aragonés") in Aragon.
