You may or may not know that people in Catalonia speak two languages: Catalan and Spanish. If you’re travelling outside the big cities, especially in rural environments like ours, people will be delighted if you attempt some words in Catalan. I was going to write a post about some basic expressions to help you get around while you are here, but Maria does it so much better in these videos. Here is a selection to get you started!

Thank you Maria!
Maria has some great videos on her YouTube channel, Learn Catalan from Barcelona, if you want to discover more about the Catalan language and culture, because, yes, language and culture are intertwined.
