In Catalan there are 8 vocalic sounds that are represented by 5 letters: a, e, i, o, and u.
The consonants that we discuss in this video are:
l, l·l, ll
s, ss, c, ç
s, z
c, k, q, qu, qü, g
r, rr
j, g
ts, tz, tx, g, tj, dj
ny
x, sh
Write in the comments which sounds you find the hardest to pronounce.
NOTE 1: Andreu speaks the Catalan from the Northwest whilst Sílvia speaks central Catalan. You’ll find that the most notable differences are in the pronunciation of the vowels. Also, in this video, Andreu pronounces the X as they do in central Catalan ([ʃ]), but normally, in the Northwest they pronounce it [tʃ].
Note 2: If the interviewees make mistakes, they will be corrected in the subtitles between brackets. If the interviewees say words in another language they will appear between square brackets. Furthermore, you’ll find the list of words that the interviewees have said and their corrections.
