It is a language on the same footing as Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian or Romanian (these, together with Catalan, are the most widely spoken romance languages, those derived from latin). <br /><br />Catalan is spoken by nearly 10 million people in Spain (along the mediterranean coast, including the Balearic islands), is the official language of Andorra and is also spoken in the southeast of France and in the Sardinian city of Alghero. <br /><br />More NBA related, you could field an all catalan speaking starting five with Ricky Rubio, Rudy, Victor Claver and the Gasol brothers, and even have Juan Carlos Navarro and Sergio Llull coming off the bench.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13471846801248279955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708814052129381665.post-82826299464642983612009-06-28T13:10:29.721-07:002009-06-28T13:10:29.721-07:00haha, awesome.

For one, they speak Spanish! And they have underground transportation and taxis, motorcycles, scooters were abundant.<br /><br />The one thing I didn't like was the food, it was worse than the food in London. We went to one small restaurant and were served these meat cubes along with fries. I didn't even try to eat the meat as it looked extremely raw. <br /><br />Another time we were at the hotel resaurant and our dinner was served with bread that was harder than rock.Bennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06642493778005453679noreply@blogger.com
