Felechosa

Felechosa is a village in Asturias in Spain, in El Pino Parish of Aller Municipality. Its dialect of Asturian is different from many others of the region.

Language[edit]

Felechosa's dialect of the Asturian Language is known for distinguishing masculine singular nouns from mass nouns by raising the stressed vowel, with mid vowels becoming high and /a/ becoming /e/.^[1] This extends to the adjective paradigm, with the word for "good" declining as [bwino] in the masculine singular rather than [bwenu] as in other dialects of Asturian.
