:::Well, it's very simple, really.
:::You say: "Aranese is the strongest player". Just explain why do you think that it is the strongest player - that's all. --[[Utilizaire:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] 27 de gen 2008 a 22:32 (UTC)
::::Man, you really make it so complex. It's really hard to define... You see if you take into consideration the production of tools and so on, even though the Val d'Aran is so diminute a place it is way ahead of what's being produced. There's no real innovation, no real bilingual dictionary would have been done without the Val d'Aran, that appeared as a breakthrough! The other dictionaries were actually some kind of lexicons, we decided to bring Occitan to a next level, write down a phonetic transcription and introduce proverbs, expressions and a small grammatical and dialectal introduction. It is not perfect but we're kind of proud of it and I had to convince my friend Patrici to add these parts because we also were afraid of criticism (the favorite activity of the Occitanist movement and one of the major impediment to a sounder progression!) I couldn't define all this in just a line, you see how long it takes to write this to you just about the dictionary... It needs to be thought, rethought and well written and I don't really have the time considering it might still be considered insufficiently grounded... The important asset of the Val d'Aran is the official status of Occitan there that implies people educated in Aranese, books, cds, dvds and material in Occitan are growing more and more while a decline or at least a stagnation can be noticed in the French administrated area. Another important tool is the translating machine and many other projects are on their way. The evolution of the valley makes it an actor on water exchanges for instance and they ask to use Occitan as a language during the Colloquium and obviously the need of an interpret and since there is nearly nobody in the French state able to deal with Catalan and Occitan I was contacted. There is obviously an unseen pressure on the Occitan regions grouped within the Euroregion, Catalan is an unavoidable player and so might be Occitan soon since it's been recognized by the new Catalan constitution, the other regions can't play against it so they need to emphasize the Occitan asset just to make sure things go well and not turn their back on the Principat de Catalunya. I don't know if my explanation was very clear; Man I'll end up writing an encyclopedia about this thing just because I have written one line. I should be more careful!!! No, I'm just joking! The problem is that all this analysis is really hard to explain (I'm sure I've left so many other things...).
