Catalan is not a dialect of Spanish, but an independent language with its own grammar and legal tradition, and is the official language of Catalonia, Andorra, and the Balearic Islands. At MacroGlobal, we take these nuances into account when preparing documents for submission to the regional government (Generalitat) or educational institutions in Barcelona. We ensure precise linguistic adaptation, avoiding interference with the Spanish language, which demonstrates respect for local cultural norms and guarantees the smooth acceptance of official documents.
The process of translation
Catalan (Valencian, self-designation: català) — the language of the Catalans, spoken by approximately 11 million people worldwide.
The language has official status in Andorra and is considered a regional official language in France (Eastern Pyrenees), Spain (Catalonia, the Balearic Islands, and Valencia), and Italy (Alghero).
The Catalan language uses an adapted Latin alphabet, specifically several letter combinations not found in other Romance languages (-ny-, -l∙l-, -ig). The grammar and phonetics of the Catalan language share both common and distinct features with neighboring Gallo-Romance and West Iberian languages. Catalan is the language of the press, radio, and television, as well as of national and popular culture.
