Vocabulary in Basque for beginners and travellers
I. Origin of Basque Vocabulary
Basque is an isolated language spoken mainly in the Basque Country, located between Spain and France. Basque vocabulary is of uncertain origin and has no obvious links to other European languages. The Basque language is rich in terms related to nature, agriculture, fishing, as well as the unique Basque culture.
II. Distinctive Sounds
Basque has a distinct phonology with sounds that do not exist in other European languages. The most notable Basque consonants are "tx" (tʃ) and "z" (s). Basque also uses diphthongs, which are combinations of two vowels pronounced in a single syllable. The tonic accent in Basque is usually placed on the first syllable of words.

Basques are proud of their language and appreciate the efforts of visitors to learn a few words and phrases in Basque.
IV. Using audio to learn Basque vocabulary
