Everyone has omitted 'today' which is 'avui' in Catalan.

Bon dia! Com estàs?

To Graham you may say "some people say" this or that but I live in the Valencian Community and Valenciano is NOT the same as Catalán. You will not find anybody in Alicante speaking Catalan but Valenciano.

Statute of Autonomy
In Article 7.1 of the Statute of the Comunidad Valenciana which includes the provinces of Alicante, Castellón and Valencia reads:

"The two official languages of the Autonomous Community are the Valenciano and the Castilian. Everyone has the right to know and use them".


The same applies to the other places mentioned by you. They do have different dialects it is not a claim it is just so.

Catalan is a language spoken in the Eastern part of Spain from the French border to an area as far south as Alicante (although some people say that the dialect spoken in the southern part of this area from Valencia down is a separate language, Valencian/Valencià). It is also spoken in the Balearic Islands (Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza, etc) - although, again, many inhabitants of these Islands claim there dialect as a separate languege. It is also spoken in a small area of Southern France (around Perpignan) although the other minority language, Occitan (or Languedoc), spoken in areas immediately adjacent to it, tends to overshadow it.

To the contributor who observed that he did not wish to waste his time on Spanish "South of the Border" - I would say that, if you mean the Spanish spoken in Mexico and the rest of Latin America, you would be wasting your time learning Iberian Spanish as well, since it is exactly the same language. Whilst different accents feature throughout the different countries in Latin America where Spanish is spoken (as, indeed, they do in the various regions of Spain), the varieties of Spanish spoken in these countries - and, in fact, in areas of the USA, differ far less from each other than do the varieties of English spoken in the UK and the USA.

I just wish I could find a good Spanish (Catalan) language course to English. Refuse to waist my time on Spanish from South of the boarder.
