Kaixo - A few words of Euskara

If you are interested in learning a few words of the language have a look at these sites.
If you have a site you have found helpful share it here. I am not sure that the following phrase could be useful in the context of Curriculum for Excellence. However you might perhaps be able to change my mind!

"Nire aerolabangailua aingirez beteta dago" translated of course........."my hovercraft is full of eels"!

Basque Education - Background Reading



Do any of you speak Euskara? Have a look at this site which is written in Euskara and Spanish. One section of particular interest is under the tab "Nortzuk gara /About us". It gives a bit of the development of the Department of Education and the functions of the Berritzeguneak.If you download the google language toolbar it will instantly translate the web pages into english for you - spanish into english (not euskara).
