Standard for the Andalusian Language

The Standard for the Andalusian Language (Andalusian Spanish: Êttandâ pal andalûh) (EPA) is an unofficial standardized orthographic system for the dialect of Spanish spoken in Andalusia.

Characteristics
EPA differs from standard Spanish orthography in reflecting the differences between Andalusian speakers and speakers of standard Peninsular Spanish. Notable differences include:


 * /s/ is represented with <ç> before /e/ and /i/
 * The unvoiced palatal affricate /tʃ/ is represented with  (as in Catalan)
 * Geminated consonants, which occur in Andalusian Spanish following a syllable ending in a dropped /s/, are represented with a doubled consonant
 * Vowels immediately preceding a dropped /s/ are marked with a circumflex, and, at the end of the word, a  added
 * All instances of  that are not pronounced in standard Spanish are removed
 *  is removed and replaced in all instances with , as both represent the voiced bilabial fricative /β/ with no distinction
