Show answer and explanation
✓ El castellano, la lengua oficial del Estado
The Constitution says that all Spaniards have the duty to know Castilian and the right to use it. It does not require knowing the other Spanish languages, although those languages are official in their comunidades and can be used there. The duty is a classic detail of the exam, because it is not a duty for all languages. Remember: duty to know equals official language of the State, that is, Castilian.
