Learn Catalan with Parlem tu i jo: Interlinear Catalan to English
About this ebook
Do you want to learn Catalan with Catalan literature? It's easy with Catalan and interlinear English. Every word is translated literally and in English idiom so you can keep on reading and learn a lot of new words at the same time.
The only Catalan reader with literal word-for-word translation and idiomatic explanation where necessary. This book contains short stories from contemporary Catalan authors Rafael Vallbona, Sònia Moll, Vicenç Villatoro and Xevi Sala Puig.
We have added an interlinear translation to the Catalan text. This means that the meaning of every Catalan word is immediately accessible, which in turn will make it much easier for you to expand your Catalan vocabulary fast. This is a unique method enabling you to read Catalan from the start.
How to learn Catalan fast and easy
Use the HypLern method to learn to read Catalan with ease and expand your vocabulary fast. Re-read the texts to learn the high frequency words.
Then mark and learn the more difficult words until you master those by re-reading their paragraphs. The repetition and the association of the story will help you memorize the words.

About the author
Interlinear word-for-word literal (plus idiomatic where necessary) translation is the key to reading a foreign language from day one.
I started creating literal plus idiomatic translations with HypLern in 2006 for Spanish and Russian to allow students to start reading in a foreign language with a beginner's vocabulary. In 2020 there are over 80 books allowing you to read and learn in more than 20 languages and literal plus idiomatic word-for-word translations to English, Danish, Dutch, Spanish and Mandarin. Check out my site at hyplern.com !!!
Those translations are available in an interlinear format here on Google Play Books as pdfs. If you would like an epub instead, contact us using the information in the book. The hyplern.com website offers both interlinear and pop-up formats for beginning to advanced readers of a foreign language and includes vocabulary practice tools.
The result is that students learn new vocabulary much faster because they get more and more complex vocabulary from the start and with the meanings in context immediately available. Especially if reinforced with revisiting the low frequency words a bit more often, this combination has you reading a foreign language independently in no time.
HypLern's goal is to create interlinear books with a word-for-word literal plus idiomatic translation for as many languages as possible. Find the paperback edition on Amazon!
