I thought Turkeys were an American invention . Any, the Basque country, el País Vasco, is far away from Finland, Hungary and Turkey. It is very strange.

Oh, I know exactly where Basque country is. I have spent time (not much ... not nearly enough ... not demasiado....) in Southwest France. AND, my uncle in Carson City, Nevada has a favorite Basque restaurant that he loves to take us to. They eat WONDERFUL food!!!

Well, some Basque people don't want to be Spanish, but I don't think they want to be French, either. Just a very small part from Basque country is in France.

Oh, I know that only a small part of Basque country is in France. I just meant that in Southwest France, one hears a great deal about the Basque culture. That's all.

When my Old English lecturer said that Basque's origin was unknown, someone in class suggested that ETA probably made it up as a secret language...

ETA was born in 1959 , and Basque is much older (I guess ).
