Language
The regional language of Benasque is a Catalan–Aragonese transitional dialect that shares features with Gascon (Occitan). It is usually called patués ("patois") by its native speakers. Possessing features that are transitional between Aragonese and Catalan, it has sometimes been classified as a variety of Catalan.
To promote the local language, the local council has held an annual writing and poetry competition in patués since 1999. Separate awards are given to young and grown-up authors.
