Languages of Andorra



Although Catalan, a Western Romance language somewhat close to Spanish and quite similar to Occitan is the only official language in Andorra and has traditionally been the national language (Andorra is normally included in the Catalan Countries), it is not the language spoken by the majority of the population, as only 33% of the population are Andorran. The majority of the population consists mainly of Spanish (43%), Portuguese (11%) and French (7%) expatriates, meaning that Spanish, Portugese, and French all have some presence in Andorra, although that is not to say that Catalan is only spoken by those of Andorran ethnicity.
