Valencià
Valencian
Romance
Valencian (Valencià) is the standard variety of Catalan spoken in the Valencian Community (~2.4M speakers), codified by the Acadèmia Valenciana de la Llengua. Unlike Central Catalan it does not reduce unstressed a/e to schwa (keeping clear [a] and [e]) and preserves a distinct open/closed vowel system with its own morphology and vocabulary; politically often named separately, it is linguistically a variety of Catalan.
