Tips for Basque to English translation
Basque is a language isolate with no known relatives, spoken by about 750,000 people in the Basque Country spanning Spain and France. It predates the arrival of Indo-European languages in Europe.
Basque uses an ergative-absolutive case system, extremely rare in European languages. The subject of transitive verbs takes a different case than the subject of intransitive verbs.
Basque word order is SOV. The auxiliary verb carries information about both subject and object.
Basque has maintained its unique identity despite millennia of contact with Celtic, Latin, Romance, and Germanic languages.
About the Basque language
The Basque Country has a strong cultural identity with its own cuisine (pintxos), sports (pelota), festivals, and a significant autonomy movement.
Basque has experienced a major revival since the end of Franco's dictatorship in Spain. Basque-medium education (ikastolak) has dramatically increased the number of young speakers.
