The Andalu ( what the people speak in Andalucia ) is not a language neither a dialect, it is a variation of the Spanish language.

It get's it's characteristic style from the numerous typical phonetic pronunciations which differ per region. Not only their is a difference in pronunciation but also in the way of speaking.

The Andalu posseses a huge lexicon which contribute to enlarge the Spanish vocabulary.

Many people think that the Andalucians speak the language badly or pronounce it wrong, whereas in reality they use their one words which they pronounce on their manner.

If you come of outside Andalucia one has had perhaps Spanish classes, but then only in Castiliano ( formal Spanish ). Therefore it can happen that you come for the first time in Spain, take a taxi in Granada and when the driver asks you “Aondeba?”. Then you think of course that you still have to practice more your Spanish. Nothing is less true. That driver asked the Andalusian way “ a donde vas “  Or “ where you go to? “

Or if one says: “To Pa Ti” then he meant to say “todo para ti” (everything for you).
