Spanish Facts

Spanish people refer to their language as Espanol ('espaņol') when contrasting it with languages of other countries, but call it Castilian ('castellano') if comparing it with other languages and dialects of Spain
Spanish compares very well with Italian: both languages have a similar sound and do not differ very much in terms of grammar, vocabulary and morphology
