`I would love very, very much if I, and what I believe it it the wish of so many others like me, were able to listen to the melodies, learning to sing them and able to download them as well.It would another treasure for me, because I am really trying to learn Euskara, and very proud of my ancestry.. Eskerrit Asko!`

`You can drop the "?" after "Batua". It is correct. "Batua" is the name of the "sinthetic" basque invented in the 1960�s to overcome the division of the basque in several variants. Some say that "Batua" is NOT really basque and that it is some kind of Esperanto or Volap�k.`
