Editing Valencian language (section)

=== Vocabulary ===
Valencian vocabulary contains words both restricted to the Valencian-speaking domain, as well as words shared with other Catalan varieties, especially with [[Northwestern Catalan|North-Western ones]]. Words are rarely spread evenly over the Valencian Community, but are usually contained to parts of it, or spread out into other dialectal areas. Examples include {{lang|ca-valencia|hui}} 'today' (found in all of Valencia except transitional dialects, in Northern dialects {{lang|ca-valencia|avui}}) and {{lang|ca-valencia|espill}} 'mirror' (shared with North-Western dialects, Central Catalan {{lang|ca|mirall}}). There is also variation within Valencia, such as 'corn', which is {{lang|ca-valencia|dacsa}} in Central and Southern Valencian, but {{lang|ca-valencia|panís}} in Alicante and Northern Valencian (as well as in North-Western Catalan). Since Standard Valencian is based on the Southern dialect, words from this dialect are often used as primary forms in the standard language, despite other words traditionally being used in other Valencian dialects. Examples of this are {{lang|ca-valencia|tomaca}} 'tomato' (which is {{lang|ca-valencia|tomata}} outside of Southern Valencian) and {{lang|ca-valencia|matalaf}} 'mattress' (which is {{lang|ca-valencia|matalap}} in parts of Valencia, including the Southern Valencian area).

Below are a selection of words which differ or have different forms in Standard Valencian and Catalan. In many cases, both standards include this variation in their respective dictionaries, but differ as to what form is considered primary. In other cases, Valencian includes colloquial forms not present in the IEC standard. Primary forms in each standard are shown in bold (and may be more than one form). Words in brackets are present in the standard in question, but differ in meaning from how the [[cognate]] is used in the other standard.
