What locals actually say

Can you pass me that bag?

Em passes eixa bossa?
Eixa is the Valencian demonstrative form, rather than the neutral Catalan aquella or aquesta in this context.

I’m not going out tonight; I work tomorrow.

Esta nit no isc; demà treballe.
Isc is the Valencian first-person form of eixir, commonly used where other Catalan varieties use surto.

Come here, kid, it’s time for dinner.

Vine ací, xiquet, que ja és hora de sopar.
Xiquet is a familiar Valencian word for a child, and ací is the local form of aquí.

Do you have change for a twenty?

Tens solta per a un bitllet de vint?
Solta is a Valencian colloquial word for loose change, marking everyday local usage rather than the more general canvi.

Is the pharmacy on that corner?

La farmàcia està en eixe cantó?
Eixe is the Valencian demonstrative for “that,” and cantó is a common Valencian word for a street corner.

Have you tried the pumpkin pastries?

Has tastat els pastissets de carabassa?
Carabassa is the Valencian form commonly used for pumpkin, and pastisset is the local word for a small sweet pastry.

Ton is the Valencian unstressed possessive used before a masculine singular family term, while telefone has the Valencian present subjunctive ending.
