Al-Andalus

from Spanishpodcast · host Mercedes León

In our 135th episode (Al-Ándalus) two friends and classmates, Rosa and Pepa, are talking about a school project about Muslim Spain of the Middle Ages, which for eight centuries was known as Al-Andalus. The Muslim conquered the Iberian peninsula (modern Spain), starting from the South (Andalusia at the present). It certainly was a rule but was also a rich exchange among cultures, languages, knowledge and technical advances that came a big progress to the muslim Spain.One of the most important legacies is the vast number of Arabic words into Spanish and provided we currently use routinely without knowing, frequently, their Arab origin. We go into a little bit to this historical period and know some of its manifestations. En nuestro episodio nº 135 (Al-Ándalus), dos compañeras de colegio, Rosa y Pepa, comentan un trabajo escolar que hace Rosa sobre la España musulmana de la Edad Media, la que se conoció durante ocho siglos como Al-Ándalus. Los musulmanes conquistaron la península ibérica (la actual España) empezando por la zona sur, la actual Andalucía. Fue una dominación, ciertamente, pero fue también un intercambio de lenguas, culturas, y conocimientos técnicos, que hizo avanzar esa España musulmana con un progreso extraordinario. Uno de los legados más importantes es la inmensa cantidad de palabras que el idioma árabe aportó al español y que hoy usamos de manera habitual, sin conocer, muchas veces, su origen árabe. Vamos a acercarnos un poquito a este periódico histórico y a conocer algunas de sus manifestaciones.
