Catalan and Alba Clopés and Joey Barber

For episode 21, ALILI becomes A Language We Love Is, as two guests, Alba Clopés and Joey Barber, join me to chat Catalan. Our conversation ranges from its Latin origins to ongoing efforts to build up popular usage of the language. Through the phonology, orthography, morphology, history and sociolinguistics of Catalan, you can see why Alba and Joey share a passion for this Romance language.Sample of spoken Catalan by Ona, from here: ⁠https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:WIKITONGUES-_Ona_speaking_Catalan.webm⁠Host: Danny BateGuest: Alba Clopés, Joey BarberMusic: Bossa Nova by William_KingArtwork: William Marler Hosted on Acast.
