Iñaki Segurola worked for years the Basque General Dictionary, as well as the Basque Historical-Etymological Dictionary. He has been a member of the Basque Language Academy since 1991. He wrote about the philosophy of the Basque Country in the essay Sed quia sua (2020, Erein). Kepa Matxain interviewed at ARGIA about this book: "We are no longer able to transmit a living language.

The first attempt was made in 2005, with Alberdania: Today is not going to make the time to die either. Nere gorringotik (2008, Alberdania) and Zergatik ez dago (2012, Alberdania) wrote below. Below you can see the interview made by Mikel Asurmendi in ARGIA on this last topic (and here reads it):

His latest work is the dialogic novel Koiteretzia (2021, Alberdania). He wrote during the lockdown, where he collected the interviews and views of the citizens who were at the time when they were going to search for food.

In the Arratsean program of the Basque Country, Irratia participated for more than ten years in the opinion section Sermoia de la teleserie.
