Catalan (Català)
About
Catalan’s funny because outsiders assume it’s “just Spanish.” It’s not. It’s closer to a mix between Spanish, French, and Italian, but also… not really. Barcelona’s full of it, but wander outside and you’ll see signs in Catalan, menus in Catalan, street names in Catalan — Spanish feels like a guest sometimes.
Locals are proud of it, and they’ll spot instantly if you treat it like “Spanish with a twist.” Don’t. You’ll get a polite smile, but trust me, they’ll switch to Spanish out of pity.
Slang’s everywhere, especially among younger speakers:
"Quedem per fer una birra?"
(“Wanna grab a beer?”)
There are softer coastal accents and sharper inland ones, and people casually mix Catalan and Spanish mid-sentence. Barcelona bars are full of people flipping between the two without blinking.
Pro tip? Skip grammar drills. Watch Catalan TV comedies — the humor’s sarcastic, fast-paced, and slangy. You’ll understand more than you expect if you just let your brain swim in it.
About Enuncia Global
Enuncia Global is… well, I guess the simplest way to put it is we’re in the business of languages. Not just translation in the boring dictionary sense, but kind of making communication smoother between people who otherwise would stare blankly at each other. We do translations, voice overs, subtitles, all that. Sometimes it feels like we’re everywhere—legal docs one day, video game dialogues the next, and then suddenly some corporate brochure that has to sound “professional but not robotic.”
I think what makes Enuncia Global different (and I don’t want to sound like a cliché company profile here, but still) is that it’s not only about throwing words from one language to another. We actually care about tone, style, culture… because honestly, what’s the point of translating if you lose the feel of it? Like, imagine a joke translated literally—it just dies, right? We try to keep that soul alive.
We’ve got a team that’s oddly diverse. Some are language nerds, some are techies who enjoy making websites and SEO stuff work, and then there are project managers who somehow manage to keep everyone from losing their minds. Not easy.
At the end of the day, it’s about trust. Clients give us sensitive stuff—sometimes personal, sometimes business secrets—and we deliver, quietly, without fuss. Maybe that’s why people stick with us. Anyway, that’s Enuncia Global in short.
