1:10 HOLY MOLY THAT IS THE MOST NATURALLY SOUNDING SPANISH ACCENT I EVER HEARD FROM AN ENGLISH SPEAKER
He has said in his previous videos that he speaks Spanish fluently
@@yuichiro12 even if you speak fluently, that level of pronunciation is insanely hard, mad props
@@yuichiro12 I've met people who have lived in Spain for 20 years and still don't manage to sound that good. I legit found it hard to believe that he's not from Spain
The only issue is that it is a bit slow, usually used for promotion or advertisement for luxury goods jajajajaja
RIGHT? HOLY FUCK
As a native catalan, I see this as an absolute win.
Ho fa molt be la veritat
A vale

Pregunta, es verdad que todas (o la GRAN MAYORIA) de hablantes de Catalan también hablan Español fluido? O has conocido a personas que solo hablen Catalan y no español?
O incluso personas q hablen Catalan y Ingles pero no español?
@@LennyQUMFIFuh viejo hacete ver, q pesado 😴😴😴
"It's weird but it is consistent" you defined the entire language with that sentence. That's what differentiates us from French and Spanish, Spanish is simple, French is just straight up chaos, we're not simple, but we are consistent in our weirdness.
Your pronunciation is better than people I know who lived in Catalonia for 40 years and never bothered.
I think is because there are two tipes of Catalan (in general terms), at the east (Catalonia and Valencia's coast, balearian islands, part of french and a city in Italy called s'alger) there is a big influence from the countries in the Mediterranean sea (mostly French and italy), because of the commerce, but in the west (Catalonia and Valencia east) there is a bigger influence from the Spanish, making that for a Catalan speaker from the east the form of the west is like a bad spoked Catalan from a Spanish person.
I don't know if you where talking about something diferent, but here is this information if you needed.
But, yes, he has a very good pronunciation.
Because in the end catalan is only useful in Andorra, as in Spain they already speak Spanish fluently, so people prefer to learn Spanish rather than catalan
@@PedroSantos-qi8es those are different accents and dialects, they speak the language good, just with they're own norms, you wouldn't say that Americans speak bad English just because they don't drop the r, It's the same. He's speaking about people that live in Catalonia but Catalan is not they're main language, so they don't speak it perfectly, completely respectable, it has a weird and difficult pronunciation so you can't really speak it perfectly if you don't speak it everyday generally.
Oh, ja el tinc que si.

There's a reason for the change between the feminine -a and plural feminine -es. When the language was standarized a century ago it was decided to be the most ''neutral'' talking about dialects, so in the west dominion of catalan we don't have these ''unestressed'' vowels and, for general law, the vowels are pronounced as it's written. So we say: dona (with [a]) and dones (with [es]).
In my zone (Lleida and sorroundings) we pronounce dona= donɛ and dones=dones. Here, almost all the final ''as'' are pronounced ɛ. In the north and south where I live they say [a] for the final ''as''. In the east they say [ə]. In the balearic isles they don't have this unstressed and stressed vowels so stressed vowels can be pronounced as [ə]. This is all talking in grosso modo, there's exceptions obviously.
I find amazing that you like these kind of things and I bet your pronounciation is really good, although the ''ll'' are pretty bad. Also, that you said of ll being different in castilian and catalan, I don't see it, although it's true that in some catalan parts it's pronounced sometimes [i]. It's true that you may refer to the ''yeísmo'' or ''ieisme'' which it's a nowadays phenomenom in castilian (transferred to catalan) that makes the ''ll'' changed to the castilian ''y'' or german ''j''.
Extremadament basat. També a la zona de l'ebre es va crear un dialecte de català occidental molt peculiar degut a la influència que va rebre la zona per estar localitzada entre València, Aragó, Lleida i Tarragona, amb molts de castellanismes, ús del "lo" com a article masculí i mescla de pronúncia valenciana, lleidatana i oriental. També degut a que històricament ha sigut una regió molt negligida i aillada tant de la resta de Catalunya com de València s'hi ha creat una cultura pròpia amalgama de les cultures veïnes amb bastant vocabulari propi. El meu exemple preferit és el "ec" o "ik" que vindria a ser una espècie de "muletilla" que es pot fer servir com a salut, expresió d'excitament, decepció o realment el que es vulgui depenent de l'entonació i del context en el que s'utilitzi, però també hi ha "xeic" i altres expressions que costen d'entendre i explicar completament si no se n'ha vist lús de primera ma.
wow dude, I've learned a lot about the euphony and spelling rules of Catalan! thank you. Btw, if you want to say something got "spanishized" you say it got "Hispanicized"
Or in català "hispanitzat"
What? I’m native from Catalonia (I live in BARCELONA) and us, Catalan ppl say “castellà” instead of Spanish, so we call that “castellanisme” a very common example is the “tinc que” it comes from Spanish “tengo que” but in Catalan you say “he de” That’s “castellanisme” LOL ITS KINDA CONFUSING ( cagada pastoret ) 😫😫😫
@@user-vp5rd2ps2v dude, a castellà també diem he de, o no te'n recordes.
@@user-vp5rd2ps2v Calling spanish Castillian always felt very weird, my head associated castillian (castellano) with the old language
@@user-vp5rd2ps2v haig de*
13:10 , when the verb uses "j" but you conjugate it and you put an e/i behind the "j", it converts to a "g". That is because the sound on g when its followed by e/i sounds as a "j"(menjar(infinitive)->mengem(we eat)). Also, this is catalan so you are going to find a lot of exceptions and that's how it is jajja. I'm a native catalan speaker btw and i think you did it really good!!
9:47 although not as common, depending from the zone in catalonia, u can also hear people saying "carrota" in stead of "pastanaga", but that is only in the northern regions. Another example would be with the word tomato (tomàquet), people from the north say "tomata". Or for example, in stead of pronouncing the word water as "aigua", they pronouce it as "aiga", without saying the "u"
In the case of Tomato exist many variants of the word like: Tomaca, Tomàquet, Tomàtiga...
This helps to know which catalan accent is the person using
Hope this helped :)
My friend (which is from Barcelona, like me) says tomata or tomaca, IDK, and I thought he was saying it wrong, but It's probably that some of his family isn't from Barcelona.
Haha, I'm a Valencian speaker, and I love to use this course as a way to learn some more about the Central (Barcelona) dialect of my language but, specially, as a way to make up for those days where I don't feel like doing the French course XD.
I have seen people not accepting that they are speaking Catalan or not calling theirselves Catalan from Valencia region and Catalan islands.
@@Kurdedunaysiri Yeah, here in Valencia there's an ideology that's called "Blaverism" (Blau means "Blue" in Valencian-Catalan, the name comes from Blaverists defending the blue stripe in Valencia's flag), and Blaverism is basicly that: saying Valencian isn't Catalan, but it's just dumb.
Also, in the *Balearic* Islands, not Catalan, there's also a similar movement, but it's fringe.
It takes some balls to claim Catalan is a dialect of Valencian lol, but as long as you are not from Alicante I will allow it
@@neoromanempire I'm not from Alicante, no worries.
Catalan and Valencian are the same language and it doesn't matter the term you use as it's totally correct to refer to the Catalan language as "Valencian".
@@WillySalamias a blaverist, i see this as an absolute win
9:50 i've heard "carrota" as well in certain regions :)
As well as "safanoria", all of those are somewhat universal in the region and they themselves have other local variants; "carrota" in some places is "carlota", "pastanaga" in some towns is "bastanaga" and "safanòria" can be "safranòria".
In catalan (and valencian, a catalan dielect) we actually have many words for carrot: pastanaga, pastenaga, safanòria, carlota, etc. Also, the vowels don't sound different depending on whether it's stressed or not, they sound different depending on whether they are open or closed. Those two concepts are not the same, although somehow related. Take the word "parèntesi" (parenthesis) and the word "parella" (pair). The stressed part of "parèntesi" is the syllable "rèn", and the stressed part of "parella" is "re". Both "e"s are stressed, but the one from "parèntesi" is open and the one from "parella" is closed. Then, you have graphical accents (e.g. "é" and "è"), which are placed on the main vowel of the stressed syllable if it follows certain rules similar to spanish rules. Whether you put one or the other depends on the vowel being open or closed. To add to the confusion, we have many dialects (e.g. valencià, català, balear). Certain words have vowels that are open or closed depending on the dialect. But that's not all: a lot of words are written the same way, but pronounced differently, depending on the dialect. For instance, "però" (but) is always written with "ò" but pronounced "ó" in valencian. Also, each dialect has its own conjugation terminations for verbs (e.g. català: "menjo", valencià: "menje", balear: "menj"). Some expressions like "soc malalt" (i'm catalan). Also, when you get into "pronoms febles" you'll see the real difficult part of catalan. You basically need to know catalan syntax to use them correctly. They're basically used to substitute parts that are already known. For instance, "porta això"->"porta-ho", "fes el llit"->"fes-lo", "menja verdures"->"en menja", "regala els llibres"->"regala'ls". Oh, and pronoms febles usually have 2, 3 or up to 4 different ways to write them, and you have to choose the correct one based on where it appears. And sometimes you need the pronom feble even if you have the original part present "t'agrada el teatre?" The "t'" (with the ') is the pronom feble, which refers to "el teatre" (even though it's still there). Oh, and catalan is also spoken in the País Valencià and Illes Balears, come and visit them ;)
In "t'agrada el teatre" the t' refers to "a tu" (to you) not to "el teatre". You could say "li agrada el teatre" and you would be refering to him/her, or "ens agrada el teatre" refering to us, or "us agrada el teatre" refering to you (more than one people), or "els agrada el teatre" refering to them, or "m'agrada el teatre" refering to me.
All the other things are correct I would say hahaha. But I am from Valls and I pronounce "parella" as "parèntesi" I don't know where are you from, maybe from Girona?
You forgot to mention combination of "pronoms febles" (weak pronouns) which is the more difficult part. For example:
"Portaré els llibres als nois" (I will bring the books to the boys) you can substitute and say: "Els els portaré".
Another examples:
"Em calen cadires" (I need chairs) --> "Me'n calen"
"Portaré la noia al zoo demà" (I will bring the girl to the zoo tomorrow) --> "La hi portaré demà (I will bring her (to the zoo) tomorrow). ("La" refers to her and "hi" refers to the zoo).
@@masalias22 Haha true, I didn't stop to think much when writing that comment. I am from la marina, in the País Valencià, so there are many words that we make closed sounds for. Nice guess with Girona, we talk in a very similar manner. But yeah, pronoms febles can be pretty complex, even for native speakers. Gràcies per la correcció i bona vesprada :)
@@Arnau478 Hahah nice. Bona vesprada! Catalans i valencians, cosins germans 😉
The thing about the j shifting into a g is because ther is a rule that states that "Before a, o, and u, goes j. Before e and i, goes g".
Now that you mention it I believe it's the same in Spanish LOL. For the "h" sounding G & J
@@jccbm yes, exactly
@@jccbm While with a, o and u you'll always put a j for the h sound ('cause if you put a g, the word makes the g sound like in GArage), words with e or i can have either a g or a j. For example, we have "jirafa" (🦒) and "girasol" (🌻). Both have the same sound but with a different letter

Truee
I'm from Valencia, where lots of ppl speak valenciano (it is almost like catalán but with some slight differences)
But there are things of catalán like the "u" sound at the end sometimes or some words that are different that confuse me. Even if I have been learning valenciano almost since kinder when a catalan person with a strong accent speaks fast it gets h a r d :'3
Nice vid btw! ✨
This is the first time i see your channel and as a native catalan I'm actually surprised of your catalan accent, is really impresive. Theres people here that don't even compare, good job 👏
As a native Catalan, I love your pronunciation in Catalan, but also in Spanish.
I hope I can speak the same way you speak Catalan but me in English one day.
14:20 You'd need something like 'some', but without actually giving it an approximate quantity.
Here's an example: "There were some people bothering me earlier."
By (in your mind) assuming 'some' doesn't actually quantify anyhting, it works, since it doesn't determine an exact amount, the approximate amount depending on the context.
That being said, it is true there is no direct equivalent to it, the use of 'some' being more of a bandaid for that gaping hole in the english language.
You have not only an amazing knowledge, your accent is super good. Even better than some people born in catalonia.
Congratulations!
I love your videos!
I have Catalan on my list of languages I wanna learn
Edit: if I argue with my friends in (US) English where we live our accent is VERY hard to understand what we are saying for the rest of English speakers

Probably Burmese if you're talking about vowel reductions.
The number 1 is /tɪʔ/. Sounds something like "tick"
But if you add a classifier or any kinda suffix the /ɪ/ changes to /ə/ and the glottal stop completely disappears.
So 1 (of a thing) becomes /tə.kʰu/, /kʰu/ being the classifier for anything.
I watched a video about Burmese once and it seems hard af. I'm very interested 👀
@@jccbm As of now the online resources are kinda bad, regarding grammatical rules and the false understanding of Burmese pitches as tones. And without a standardized romanization it is kind of difficult to know how to pronounce the words properly.
Rely on natives only if you want to practice conversational Burmese. You'll need a native with linguistics background to teach you the proper stuff (I'm serious), like when to drop consonants or when to apply vowel reduction.
Great job!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
As a native catalan, I feel like a proud mum, very proud of you mate! you have AMAZING pronunciation
I think Quebecois French also takes the normally "lunch" word for breakfast and the "dinner" word for lunch compared to standard French.
That would make sense, because I understand "souper" is Quebecois french for dinner, similar to catalan "sopar"
That's a phenomemnon who's called the linguistic conservatism of the peripheries
The terms were the same everywhere, then metropolitan France began to invert the two, while the rest of the french speaker stayed on the old words
Same in Belgium, DR. Congo and Switzerland.
In old french breakfast was called Déjeuner (lunch), lunch was called Dîner (dinner), dinner was called Souper (supper)
@@jccbm that is a funny story. In France they used to have "de/jeuner" ("des/ayunar" in Spanish and "break/fast" in English) as the first meal in the morning, as it name suggests. There was some French king that didn't like to wake up early in the morning and slept until past noon, then HE had breakfast. So, the other meals were also shifted and, for the meal in the morning, they started using the word "petit-dejeuner" (small breakfast).
Also, there is a small confusion about meals in Spanish because in Spain is different than in South America. The 5 meals in Spain are: Desayuno (6-8h), Almuerzo (10-11h), Comida (14-15h), Merienda (17h) y Cena (around 21h).

In catalan we say 'Pastanaga', but we also say 'Carlota' in the south of Catalunya, that is similar to the Italian word or the english 'carrot'. Molt bon video!!

PD: you should try the pa amb oli i sucre
According to Catalan Wikipedia Pastanaga can also be called Carrota and Safanòria (same root as Zanahoria)
Carlota
The pronunciation about the vocals changes between regions, in Lleida or Mallorca for example are slightly (sometimes really) different than Barcelona (occidental) accent (the one that teaches Duolingo)
The word for carrot is the most latin one amongst romance language, as it comes from pastinaca, a very similar vegetable. Despite this, we have other words for carrot. In my town we say " safanòria". You can also hear carrota and carlota.

Hi! Spanish does have that 'll". That is why we have "y" and "ll". In some areas people still make the difference between both and in some other places they don't.

I'm catalan and the language sounds a lot like French because while Spanish is a mix or Arabic and latin languages, catalán is just latin, so it is closer to the other latin languages, just in case someone was wondering. Btw your catalán is so fucking good omg
8:58 no it's not, that's a similar dish in southern Spain. Pa amb tomàquet is bread with rubbed tomato on it, so the rest of the tomato can be spent with other stuff
i live in catalunya and i feel like happy now that this language is getting more popular
12:07 in latin america they have different sounds for ''s/z/c'' because they got it from andalusian, not recognized as its own language although it might qualify for that but it is spoken is andalusia and near southern zones
as someone who's actually studying catalan rn i love this! it's also a fun way to learn spanish at the same time and ladder them because you need to know spanish to get anything out of the course. catalan is such cool sounding romance language, cant lie i've been lsitening to music in it and it slaps
I just gonna say one thing, that Catalan is the Catalan of Catalunya, in other places in Spain that is speak Catalan, like Balearic Island or "Comunidad Valenciana" its different, for example the "o" is only said "u" there, in the rest of territoris is said "o"
Felicitats des de Barcelona, el català és una llengua bastant difícil així que molt de mèrit per a tu. Visca el Barça!
Yesterday, I visited the Tillamook cheese factory, and they were selling cheese sweatshirts, and I thought of you.
Molt bon video
Tens molt bon accent en català, 👏Greetings from Barcelona!
Incredible
I can confirm, a toasted slice of a good bread with olive oil and sugar is a wonderful snack.
En valenciano (dialecto del catalán), desayuno es desdejuni, y esmorçar se hace entre el desayuno y la comida (la gente el Valencia adora almorzar).
Catalan is basically françeñol and I'm here for it!
Català is much more closer to Italian or Spanish than to French. Much much closer, it has almost no germanic influence.
@@sergiogarpla2902 except it does have a lot of similarities to French, but phonology is more similar to the others however gramma is to French
@@xavierhillier4108
Italian and catalan-->87% similarity
Spanish and catalan-->85% similarity
French and catalan-->80% similarity
Occitan ?
@@marclacroix1365 yes, catalan and occitan (and possibly aragoneses) make the branch of the occitano-romance languages, they are all part of the gallo-romance family.
M'encanta les referències a Espanya i Catalunya amb els temes musicals de Pokémon Escarlat/Púrpura els quals estan basats en el territori.
I'm a catalan native and I'm really impressed for your easiness to learn the phonetics of such a language!! But I've never understood why foreigns pronounce the 'll' at the end of a word like it was an "l"
As a person which speaks natively spanish and lives in catalonian place your catalan pronunciation is even better than mine.

How could you forget?? 😁 Hungarian!
a-á; i-í; e-é; o-ó; ö-ő; u-ú; ü-ű... should I go on? (Un)fortunately I can't, that's all. 😂
(As I was thinking about this more I realized that we have fixed stress on the first syllable so I am pretty sure I failed in linguistics... 😂 But I will leave this comment up for a fun fact and/or a discussion that we have ridiculous amount of short-long vowel pairs in Hungarian. :D)
Yes, it's a different system. Hungarian vowels are consistent to my understanding. "e" will always sound like "e" and "é" will always sound like "é". These languages I'm mentioning just use the same letter for different sounds, and the "rule" is based around the stressing of the word
6:26 Del castellano antiguo al actual hubo palabras/frases que se acortaron: canna > caña, ve con Dios > Adiós
I am a native catalan and spsnish speaker and still regularly confuse almuerzo with esmorzar and not dinar (which is also not dinner, but lunch haha)
DUDEEE IM LITERALLY CATALAN! I have a C1 in English, so it’s really good and I understand it a lot! But seeing an English person learn Catalan? The language I’ve been speaking since is was a baby? Nah, it just hits hard, thank you for doing this. Spanish people literally hate us 😭✋ (we had a civil war 😳)
Uhhh.. Who's gonna tell him?
@@siam_enjoyer8584nah, hes pretty good for a non native english speaker
What's with the last part?
No one hates you. The civil war was never against Catalans. In fact, they sided with the republicans.
I'm catalan too and Spanish people dont hate us... they.. or "we" (bc we are spaniards too) hate the separatists, an ideology that would harm both sides greatly.
Vale?
As a native catalan, this is insane, congrats
Im costa rican and u can do such a good spanish accent, im impressed
I'm catalán and this video make me laugh a lot seriously I loved it
'safanòria' is also a word for 'pastanaga' in catalan
As a native catalán I can say that "la llimona" is also "El llimó" but depends on the zone
Que buen acento, me sorprendí mucho al escucharte hablar español, suena como una persona nativa de España.
Wow you have a very good spanish accent, and catalan too (I am actually catalan)
per què pronuncies millor que molts nadius? Es boig 😭
Hahaha he apres una mica de forma academica o “standard”, pero encara em falta molt. Gracies pel comentari!
El problema és que a Barcelona hi ha massa gent que no parla bé i parla el “xava”. És horrible!!
Me cague la mare que en va parir, que xquet més genial (the catalan has infinite variatons, in the next town tehy can totally speak different)
Hello you do it good i am a Catalan speaker (its my mother languaje)
La teva pronunciació, tant del català com del castellà, és excepcional. Enhorabona, molt i molt bé! Particularment, la teva pronunciació en català és molt millor que la molts catalans que tenen arrels espanyoles, ja que parlen amb molt accent castellà. Excel·lent
Your pronunciation of both Catalan and Spanish is exceptional, congratulations, very, very good! Particularly, your Catalan pronunciation is much better than the one of many Catalans with Spanish roots, who speak Catalan with a very strong Spanish accent. Excellent.
good to know if i go to barcelona thanks!
As a catalan this is so fun to watch
There are regions of Catalonia where Catalan is pronounced more easily. With vowels pronounced the same regardless of their position
I think that in tarragona or girona, they dont say "pastanga", they say "carrota"
i’ve heard ‘carlota’
11:51 yes it is
I want to try this out, but I have other languages I’m learning in English will it change all those to Spanish as well? As in the language I respond in?
No, you can jump freely from one another
