Catalan voice over, natively reviewed.

Catalan audiences expect Catalan, not a Spanish script translated word for word. We cast the variety your listeners speak.

Accents and variants of Catalan.

Central Catalan
The most widely heard variety, based on Barcelona, and the usual choice for national content in Catalonia.
Valencian
The variety of the Valencian Community, with its own vocabulary and verb forms.

The accent of Mallorca, Menorca and Ibiza, for audiences on the islands.
North-western Catalan
The variety of western Catalonia and Aragon, for audiences there.
Andorran Catalan
For audiences in Andorra, where Catalan is the official language.

What a native Catalan reviewer checks.

Tu or vostè
Vostè is the formal form and is still common with older audiences and in public services. We agree it first.
Variety-specific forms
Valencian and Central Catalan differ in some verb forms and words, and audiences notice.
Place and brand names
Names written in Catalan or Spanish are said differently, and we check each against the market.

Writing for Catalan.

Write in Catalan, not translated from Spanish
Word order and idiom differ, so a script written in Catalan sounds natural and a mirrored Spanish one does not.
Choose the variety deliberately
For one audience across regions, Central Catalan is widely understood. For Valencia, use a Valencian voice.
Public content has language rules
Catalonia and Andorra set expectations for the use of Catalan in public services. Check them for your sector.

Catalan voice over: questions.

Is Valencian a different language?

Linguists and the main academies treat it as a variety of Catalan, and many Valencians use their own name for it. We cast it as its own accent.

Is Catalan worth producing if the audience also speaks Spanish?

Catalan content builds trust that a Spanish version does not, especially in public services, education and retail.
