Hello, good day to you. I want to ask if you know any English resources to learn Catalan/history of Catalan?

Hello! UPF just announced two more classes available online! A2 and B1. They aren’t free like the A1.1 and A1.2, because they have live instruction instead of the pre-recorded modules, but the price is only €270 per course. The A2 class is set to run three times so far, starting in October 2026, January 2027, and April 2027, and the B1 is set to run two times starting in January 2027 and April 2027.original ↗
