Original: Today Basque holds co-official language status in the Basque regions of Spain: the full autonomous community of the Basque Country and some parts of Navarre. Basque has no official standing in the Northern Basque Country of France and French citizens are barred from officially using Basque in a French court of law.
Simplified: Basque (in Basque: Euskara) is the language spoken by the Basque people in the Basque Country and diaspora.
