Great coverage for One Minute Catalan in El Punt

Following the launch of our new Catalan course, and Radio Lingua director Mark's own Catalan language challenge which culminated in lots of Catalan speaking on his recent trip to Barcelona, this article appeared in Sunday's El Punt. It's very similar to what appeared on the Vilaweb article. If you want to test your understanding of Catalan, download the pdf here.

One Minute Catalan is going very well - we're seeing good metrics, helped along by the One Minute Languages series being featured on iTunes in the UK and US!

One Minute Catalan makes the Catalan press

Last Friday saw the launch of six new languages in our One Minute Languages series, and Radio Lingua director Mark Pentleton was in Barcelona to launch One Minute Catalan as part of PodCamp Barcelona. The introduction of the world's first "learn Catalan" podcast has caught the interest of the Catalan press, and the popular digital news site, Vilaweb, has tonight featured an article about One Minute Catalan, outlining the background to the One Minute series. Si parles català, pots llegir l'article aquí. I si no, doncs hi ha un podcast que pots utilitzar per a aprendre'l! (If you speak Catalan you can read the article here, if not there's a very good podcast you can use to learn!
