Het Catalaans (català) is een Romaanse taal die in meerdere variëteiten en dialecten wordt gesproken in de Spaanse autonome gemeenschappen Catalonië, de Balearen en Valencia, in het land Andorra, in het Zuid-Franse Roussillon (of Pyrénées-Orientales), in het oosten van Aragón (Franja de Ponent), in een klein gedeelte van Murcia (El Carxe) en in de stad Alghero op het Italiaanse eiland Sardinië. Er zijn zo'n tien miljoen sprekers van het Catalaans. De taal vertoont sterke overeenkomsten met het Occitaans, dat in Zuid-Frankrijk gesproken wordt. Daarnaast lijkt het ook enigszins op het Castiliaans (Spaans). Het is de officiële taal van Andorra. Volgens artikel 2 van de Spaanse grondwet (zestalig) is het Castiliaans de officiële taal maar zijn de andere Spaanse talen zoals Catalaans, Galicisch en Baskisch ook officieel, "in die autonome gemeenschap waar ze gesproken worden".
