5. favourite song in your native language?

Answered here!

6. most hated song in your native language?

Not exactly hate, but I find Cris Juanico’s Ses al·lotetes i el jove de San Lluis to be somewhat… grating. And look, Bon dia from Els Pets (the farts - yes, that’s the name of the group XD) is a good song, but it’s overused EVERYWHERE.

7. three words from your native language that you like the most?

- Pampallugues: sort of blinking, those flashes of light/dark sometimes you get over your eyes when you’re dazed or dizzy

- Somiatruites: dreamer, having unrealistic and naïve expectations (literally means “Omelette dreamer” XD)

- Xerinola: revelry, merry noises of celebration

23. which alcoholic beverage is the favoured one in your country?

Cava is THE catalan drink XD Wines are incredibly popular (and very much local) too. And when it comes to sweet wines, Moscatell is da bestest.

24. what other nation is joked about most often in your country?

There’s a lot of jokes about different Spanish regions, especially about how exaggerated the basque are (quick example of joke: A basque lumberjack fells a tree and proceeds to cut all the branches until only the main trunk remains. Then he drags it to the nearest bar, yelling “Oy, Patxi! I’m bringing you the toothpick!”).
