Since we are travelling through three countries each with their own language, finding phrase books has been one of our many “to-dos”. As my grandparents have a place down in Spain I have some limited knowledge of Spanish and after studying French for three years at school I also know a little bit of that, but if you ask me a question, will I understand? The likely answer would probably be no!
We have pigeon cards for French and Spanish (small postcard sized guide cards with commonly used words) as well as a small phrase book for each too. It seems that Andorra’s official language is Catalan, but seeing as we’ll only be spending a day at most there we didn’t think it’d be worth bothering as it’s a Spanish dialect anyway. We thought it was best to just leave it at that; there’s probably not much point learning chunks of language when we’re not going to be doing that much talking anyway! We’ll let you know how we get on with communicating as we go… if we can figure out how to ask for Wi-Fi of course!
