Languages don't map to countries. For example, I introduced Catalan, and:
- it highlighted all of Spain, even though Catalan is only spoken in some areas
- it didn't highlight Andorra, an country where the only official language is Catalan
- it didn't highlight parts of France and Sardinia where Catalan is also spoken (albeit not officially or with limited recognition)
I happened to run into Viggo Mortensen's card, which claims he speaks 4 languages. He is slow, but I'd say his Catalan is pretty functional! https://www.ccma.cat/catradio/alacarta/el-mati-de-catalunya-radio/viggo-mortensen-he-fet-neteja-compartir-tajuda-a-treure-el-dolor-el-dubte-laillament/video/6062337/ https://www.ccma.cat/catradio/alacarta/el-mati-de-catalunya-...
- BrandoElFollito 3y agoWhere is Catalan spoken in France?
- nickserv 3y agoTraditionally the area northeast of the Pyrenees, or around Perpignan to name a city. I'm not sure there are many people that speak it though, I've only ever heard it on regional radio and television channels.
