I work in an office where the secretary/administrator speaks some Portuguese. Connected to our office is another one, run by a man who speaks some Spanish.
I showed them an excerpt of the text (from this person's Web site). The two people decided -- it's not Portuguese! It's similar, but not quite. Well, I looked and found that it's Catalonian! Kind of like a dialect of Spanish, but not actually.
That's an even more uncommon language, I think. I'm guessing no one here speaks it -- or knows anyone who does. (But correct me if I'm wrong!) Hmm. I was thinking of perhaps getting in touch with one of the English-speaking contributors/editors to the Catalan-language version of Wikipedia. I've found a few such people. Any thoughts on how to ask such a favor?
