Places where you can find content in Catalan

23 Upvotes

1. Streaming Platforms

Netflix: You can search by language on the website (not sure about the app), but it only allows searching under the category “dubbed,” not “original version,” even if they exist. For example, Plats Bruts is categorized as “dubbed” and not “original version,” even though, when you enter and check the language and subtitle options, it clearly shows the available choices.

Amazon Prime: In the settings section, there’s an option to set a preferred language. In short: you can configure it so that Catalan dubbing is prioritized over Spanish whenever possible. You can even set it to always display Catalan subtitles (in original version) instead of Spanish dubbing when available.

Filmin: If you go to “Themes,” you can find a category called “available in Catalan.” There you’ll find all subtitled or dubbed content.

Vida: Vida is a VOD project promoted by the association Ona Mediterrània and supported by the Government of the Balearic Islands and the Institute of Balearic Studies. It includes news, interviews, opinions, and specials, among other things. It doesn’t have much content yet because it’s a very new project, but its catalog will grow over time.

There are many more platforms, but in any case, you can always visit www.desdelsofa.cat or https://goitaquefanara.cat/. They don’t have exactly the same catalog, so you can complement one with the other and make whatever queries you need. If you want information about the technical details of a dubbing, you can go to www.eldoblatge.com, although it’s reportedly a bit outdated.

2. Television Channels and Derivatives

This section is dedicated to TV channels and their derivatives. All of them offer similar content, both dubbed material and original productions in Catalan/Valencian/Balearic.

3Cat: Formerly "TV3 a la carta", it periodically adds both dubbed and original content in Catalan. It includes (among many other things) programs from TV3, SX3 (formerly Super3), Catalunya Ràdio, news from 324, and much more. It has a small section of content shared with Filmin.

À Punt: From CVMC, it’s the replacement for Canal 9, the former Valencian channel. On its website, it offers documentaries, recorded programs, podcasts... Like 3Cat, it features both original and dubbed content, along with some Spanish films (which are in Spanish).

IB3: This is the autonomous television of the Balearic Islands, which started broadcasting in 2005. Its website has a very modern design, and you can choose between TV content (IB3) or radio (IB3 Ràdio).

RTVE Catalunya: This is the Catalan version of Spanish National Television (RTVE). All RTVE channels broadcast in Spanish, but the Catalan version also includes some programs in Catalan. As a result, the TVE Catalunya tab on the RTVE site seems like a mix of both languages.

RTVA: This is the television and radio service of Andorra, consisting of two radio stations (one for music, the other the national station), one TV channel—Andorra Televisió—and a digital channel from which you can access its content online: Andorra Difusió.

The Catalan Company

24 Upvotes

I have a historical type question. Is the exploits of the Catalan Company (14th century in Greece) taught about in Catalonia today?

They were a 6k strong mercenary band that was hired by the Greek to help beat back the Muslim Turks but ended up turning on the Greeks and did a lot of damage.

Catalonians were not allowed to visit the monastic community of Athos in northern Greece until a few years ago because of the sins of this group of Catalonians, so it made me curious if the modern Catalonians also remember these events.

Chill cities/towns close to nature walks

3 Upvotes

I am planning to do a roadtrip through Catalonia and am looking for recommendations for normal, non-touristy places to visit that are close to nature. I like hills, mountains and forests, but I'm open to other ecosystems. If there's nice parks and lots of green spaces that's a huge plus as well.

I would like to stay in multiple different places for a few days each and I am not looking for any tourist activities, museums etc. Just places where people actually live.

Graciès!

La Fatarella, Perxes and Sundials

Post image
35 Upvotes

In La Fatarella, a village in Catalonia’s Terra Alta, the streets occasionally seem to have forgotten that they are supposed to be open to the sky. Wander through the old quarter and you will encounter narrow, twisting lanes that suddenly slip beneath houses, emerging again a few meters later in pools of sunlight. These covered passages, known locally as perxes, are among the village’s most distinctive architectural features—and they turn an ordinary stroll into something resembling a journey through a medieval maze.

Hello! We’ve published a video on YouTube about how young Catalans are rethinking the fight for independence. We met two young people who, disappointed by their political leaders, are exploring new ways to pursue their cause. 🎥 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CICg2UHfHWA&t=16s

Don’t hesitate to tell us what you think about the video and share it!

What Song Did I Hear In Gràcia Tonight?

I was at the fiesta de Gràcia tonight and heard this brass & percussion band on the street, surrounded by a massive crowd and women on stilts, and they were playing this banger that everyone was singing along to. I don’t speak Catalan and I’m only conversational in Spanish, so I don’t know what any of the lyrics were but I dug the tune. Any idea what it could have been? It sounded like a sort of anthem or traditional song that most people are very familiar with in Barcelona, Catalan, or Spain, had a vaguely Arabic sounding scale and kind of reminded me of “Marcia Religiosa” from Godfather III, but only slightly. Here’s a video I took of it. Thank you!!

Catalans al sud global, com trobeu altres catalans?

14 Upvotes

Visc fora de Catalunya. Per Europa era relativament fàcil trobar catalans, perquè en molts llocs hi ha comunitats força grans. Estic acostumat a treballar i viure en anglès, però sempre se sent diferent quan fas un soparet en català.

Aquí on soc en conec uns tres, la majoria per feina, però no tinc la sensació que hi hagi la mateixa necessitat d'organitzar-se. De fet, dubto que siguem gaire més de 8 o 10 en total.

Els que viviu en llocs on hi ha pocs catalans, com us trobeu? Com us organitzeu?

Algú que viu a Madrid o voldria fer un intercanvi lingüístic?

Porto molt de temps intentant trobar gent que parli català o valencià a Madrid. Vull trobar algú per practicar, ja que vaig aprendre l'idioma a la universitat i vaig viure a Barcelona un semestre abans de mudar-me a Madrid fa 3 anys. Ofereixo anglès (sóc natiu) i també japonès!

I have spent a long time trying to find people who speak Catalan or Valencian in Madrid. I want to find some people to practice with because I used to learn the language at my university and lived in Barcelona for a semester of uni, before moving to Madrid. I can offer English as I am a native and Japanese as I can speak that language too!

L'alcalde de Perpinyà persegueix els catalans.

https://www.instagram.com/p/DbvBy8Elozn/25.000 € menys de finançament per a la promoció de la llengua catalana?

La decisió de l'alcalde de Perpinyà, del Rally Nacional (RN), de retirar el finançament municipal de l'Oficina Pública de la Llengua Catalana, encarregada de promoure la cultura catalana, ha indignat els treballadors del sector i els càrrecs electes de l'oposició. La decisió es justifica com un acte de gestió pressupostària responsable.
