Today thousands of Ahobizi and Belarriprest have launched the third edition of Euskaraldia and will have to complete the socio-linguistic exercise until December 2: Ahobizi – and with all the first word in Basque – will speak in Basque with all those who understand Basque, Belarriprest asks those who know Basque, to whom he will speak in Basque when he can and wants.
