[Romería Vikinga] which is “Viking Pilgrimage”. [Durante la romería vikinga la gente se disfraza de vikingos] - “During the Viking Pilgrimage, people dress up as Vikings”.
[gallego] which means “Galician person”. [Cuando hablan los gallegos parece que cantan] - “When they talk, Galician people seem to be singing.”
