An Introduction to the Catalan and Valencian Languages: From One Novice to Another

by David S. Luton

This book is intended for those who want a basic knowledge of the Catalan and Valencian languages as well as an appreciation of the differences between the two. Please this is NOT a tourist phrase book, although it does contain basic phrases which are useful in everyday life, as well as basic vocabulary and grammar. I have also made this (exact same) book available in paperback for those who would prefer to have it in that format, although I apologize that the price is necessarily somewhat higher for logistical reasons.

Dave Luton has more than fifteen years combined experience teaching English and Spanish and has lived in the Valencian Community of Spain during the last several years.

About the author

Dear reader friends, Most of my books are for learning foreign languages and have been self-published with Amazon in both Kindle and paperback formats. A few of my books published under the name Dave Luton deal with self-help or philosophical subject matter, and there is also one book of poems. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments related to any of my books. Thank you and all the best, Dave
