Hola! In this episode, we’re learning how to talk about what we’re reading, listening to, and watching right now in Catalan. We’ll look at the present continuous tense with verbs like llegir, mirar, and escoltar, and we’ll learn new vocabulary for books, series, podcasts, and films.

We hope you enjoy it!

Bones! Com anem?

This episode dives into yet another tense in Catalan - the present continuous! This tense is used quite a lot in daily conversations mainly to talk about what you or someone is doing right at that moment. 

Tune in to learn more about when we use it, how's it formed and practise hearing it in different contexts!

Hola! We're here with episode 20 and it's another review episode of the last 4 lessons - you'll hear a lot of sentences in the Imperfect tense, and specifically relating to things you used to do in the past, old routines at school, what you carried in your bag/pencil case and much more.

There's a dialogue at the end which we go through in more detail in the bonus episode. If you consider becoming a Patron it will not only help you make faster progress with your Catalan, but help us keep this project going and provide many more free lessons for you.

Thank you for all the support! We hope you enjoy the episode :)

In this episode, we dive deeper into the imperfect tense by talking about what our school routines used to be like. You'll review common daily routine verbs, learn time expressions, and build longer sentences in context. Through storytelling, guided practice, and a short dialogue, you’ll get comfortable using the imperfect tense to describe past habits. Great for intermediate learners looking to make their Catalan more natural and fluid!

The current group classes are going so well that I would love to do more in September, so I am just trying to get an idea of interest and available dates/times for everyone. Please fill in a short survey if you would be interested in classes:
