This e-book is your clear, confidence-building start into Catalan—made for English-speaking learners. You’ll begin with the most important sounds and correct pronunciation, then progress step by step through useful words, phrases, and short dialogues for everyday situations, travel, and family life so you can build your first real conversations.
Each unit follows a simple, repeatable structure: short explanations in plain English, compact vocabulary lists, model dialogues, pronunciation tips, mini-exercises, and a quick review to lock in what you learned. Grammar is explained in a friendly, no-jargon way (sentence structure, personal pronouns, questions, tenses) with practical memory aids you can use immediately. Culture notes help you use Catalan politely and authentically in real contexts across Catalonia and beyond.
Designed for self-study at levels A1–A2, the course includes clear learning goals, time-planning tips, checklists, and small tests at the end of each chapter to keep you motivated. Highlights draw your attention to key Catalan terms so you recognize them faster in context. Whether you’re traveling to Barcelona, connecting with Catalan-speaking friends and family, or exploring a new language for personal growth, this book guides you in a structured, motivating, and hands-on way toward your first successful conversations.
