A01	00:00:00 00:20:05	Basque language:	Before the war all the houses in Abaurrea Baja spoke in Basque but the young didn’t, although perhaps they understood it. They did not want to speak it, they didn’t like the language. Some girls learnt it because they would go to Valcarlos and to Francia to work. However, those who went to Abaurrea Alta did not learn it. There the priest and the schoolmaster would not allow them to speak in Basque. Before the war the guards would shout at them roughly to speak in Spanish.There were never any guards in Abaurrea Baja and in Garaioa. In Abaurrea Baja there is only one speaker although some of the old people understand the language. In Salazar there were also Basque speakers although they spoke in a different way. There were also some from Mezkiritz. The Basque spoken in Mezkiritz is more like that from Aezkoa than from Salazar. In Salazar "they have another slant".
A02	00:20:05 00:21:50	politics	Demonstrations in San Sebastian, attacks from ETA. The bad economic situation of the Aezkoa District Board.
