Despite government threats the Acadèmia Valenciana de la Llengua, (AVL) have published their new official Valencian online dictionary. Vilaweb report that the launch was cancelled for technical problems after receiving criticism and threats from the government for having included definitions that describe Valencian and Catalan being the same language. The dictionary went online at midday today, without any public introduction, and can be consulted over the internet. The dictionary includes the definition of Valencian that the government loathes: Romance language spoken in the Valencian Community, as well as in Catalonia, the Balearic Islands, the French département of the Eastern Pyrenees, Andorra, the Eastern strip of Aragon, and the Sardinian city of Alguer, where the language is called Catalan.
