'Castellano' (Castilian Spanish) like its equivalent, Standard English, i.e. the most widely-accepted and officially-used version of Spanish spoken in Spain.

But just as Welsh, Scots Gaelic, and various dialects are spoken in the UK, so in Spain there are languages (Catalan and Basque in particular, spoken in Catalonia and the Basque country, respectively; and considerably more since the death of Franco, during whose Dictatorship they were banned) and dialects (e.g. Gallego, spoken in Franco's own home-region, Galicia; and Andalucian, spoken in Andalucia in the SWof Spain) which are widely used in non-official circles.

In addition, since the late 1970s, Catalan and Basque have become the official languages of the two regions mentioned.
