Galician Journalist Promotes Regional Language Use

Galician journalist Fran Cañotas encourages the use of the Galician language in a recent video. In the video, filmed in a studio setting, Cañotas explains that he speaks Galician for two main reasons: "I speak Galician first because it makes me happy, and second because it is the language that was always spoken in my house." He fondly recalls his family sharing stories in Galician, adding a personal touch to his advocacy. Cañotas's message is one of encouragement, urging others to "try it, it's really great." His choice of favorite word, "queixo" (cheese), adds a touch of Galician humor to his heartfelt plea. The video, produced by La Voz de Galicia, reflects a growing interest in promoting regional languages and cultural pride in Spain.
