Notes : This street sign illustrates municipal recognition of A Fala, with its placement above Spanish, reversing the usual hierarchy seen elsewhere. The inclusion of the municipal crest emphasises institutional authority, while the bilingual layout foregrounds the local language as primary in this context.
It comes from Arabic šarābil (related to drinking places / conduits), like many water-related words in Spanish.
