About the Occitan language.
Occitan is the regional language of southern France, from Gascony and Toulouse to Provence, and is also spoken in the Val d'Aran in Spain, where it is official, and in the Occitan Valleys of Italy. It is a Romance language with a famous medieval literature, the poetry of the troubadours.
Occitan has several dialects, including Gascon, Languedocien, Provençal, Limousin, Auvergnat and Vivaro-Alpine, with different spelling traditions. Tell us where your readers are and which spelling they use, and we will follow it. Occitan is close to Catalan, which has its own page.
French official documents are issued in French, which we also translate. Occitan work is usually cultural, education and public material, tourism and marketing, signage, and research.
We translate in both directions, including Occitan into English or French. A certified translation is available for these. If an authority asks for a sworn translation, ask us to confirm availability for the language pair.
