This is a very layered linguistic landscape with lots of posters and graffiti. Spanish “TORTURA” (anti-bullfighting slogan, repeated several times) “NO A LA” (part of “No a la tauromaquia” probably) “PURO AMOR” “PERO…” and “ES…” fragments “VAMO DHOR PYDI” (likely intended as distorted Spanish) Posters mentioning “FERIA RAYANA”, “INVITA”, “CÁCERES”, “AGOSTO” etc. English “NO” (as part of protest slogans and graffiti) Some stylised brand/tag words like “LOVE” (partially visible in graffiti) Graffiti tags / invented words “GUSA” “RATA” “PYRO” Other tag-like scribbles that don’t belong clearly to any standard language. The main languages present are Spanish and English, with a strong predominance of Spanish since this is a protest / cultural poster space in Spain. There are also non-standard graffiti scripts that serve more as visual identity markers than communicative language. PALRA
