OCCITAN FOR BEGINNERS (LESSON 01) | PARLEM OCCITAN • LAS VOCALAS

This is the first episode of the Occitan class I created. This is especially designed for beginners wishing to learn Occitan. The dialect I speak is Central Lengadocian. I made this series of videos for fun and on my free time. It obviously does not claim to cover all facets of the Occitan language (different accents, particularisms, pronunciation...) but it will serve as a learning base for all those who wish to know more about this beautiful language. ➡️ WHO AM I?

Collectively, these regions are sometimes referred to as Occitania. Occitan is fundamentally defined by its six great dialects: Gascon, Auvernhat, Lemosin, Lengadocian, Provençal and Vivaro-Alpine. Since I was born in Nice I am able to speak both Nissart Occitan (a branch of Provençal spoken in my family) and Leangadocian Occitan (the most standardized form). 🔴 Here is a lecture I gave at the University of Berkeley about the history and features of the Occitan language:    • Occitan as a Heritage Language & the Inter...   🟡 Can French, Catalan and Italian speakers understand Occitan?
