Navarrese is an Ibero-Romance dialect which is spoken in a transitional area between Castilian and Aragonese.[1][2] Navarrese was originally referred as its own language, however, the obscure dialect was merged into Castilian at the beginning of the 16th century.[3]
Characteristics
Navarrese is known to retain traits from Navarro-Aragonese.[3]
- Unlike Aragonese and Castilian, Navarrese perserves -mb-, such as in lamber, lombo, and palomba.
Vocabulary
Several loanwords from Basque appear in Navarrese.[3] These include:
| Navarrese | Basque | Meaning |

| celaya | zelai | plain, grassland |
| mandarra | mandar | apron |
