Catalan language
Catalan
(;

:
català
) is a
Romance language
named for its origins in
Catalonia
, in what is northeastern
Spain
and adjoining parts of
France
. It is the national and only official language of
Andorra
, and a co-official language of the Spanish
autonomous communities
of
Catalonia
, the
Balearic Islands
, and
Valencia
(where the language is known as
Valencian
, and there exist regional standards). It also has semi-official status in the city of
Alghero
on the
Italian
island of

. It is also spoken with no official recognition in parts of the Spanish autonomous communities of
Aragon
(
La Franja
) and
Murcia
(
Carche
), and in the historic French region of
Roussillon
/
Northern Catalonia
, roughly equivalent to the
