Catalan (Català) or Valencian (Valencià) is a Romance language, the national language of Andorra and co-official in several regions of Spain. Spain has the majority of active Catalan speakers, and Catalan is the country's second most widely spoken language. It is spoken or understood by as many as 12 million people who live not only in Andorra and Spain, but also in parts of France and Italy.
Although Catalan looks very intimidating and difficult to learn, with similarities to both Spanish and French, once the basic rules have been learned, pronunciation is fairly straightforward. This guide will give you the basics you need to start your studies, take a vacation, and open up some new horizons in your life!
