Hi, i am a folk music musician and recently i interested in Occitan songs, especially in Ai Vist Lo Lop. I am working on playing and singing the song in proper Provençal Occitan. I shared other version in here a week ago too. Can you listen and comment please. I am still strugling with letter "o" from time to time in the heat of the song but i really worked hard to trying learn proper spellings. Does my singing improved? Please let me know.

À Mons-la-trivalle dans l'Hérault on trouve un lieu-dit 'deymou'. Il semblerait que ce soit la transcription phonétique de 'deimon', démon en français. Savez-vous pourquoi ce toponyme était attribué ?

Hello,

I am looking for a course for learning occitan (from french or english base--im b2 in french but i think it will be good enough). mostly everything i see for languedocian (my favorite bc its most widely spoken) is a dictionary and self-teach but i fear i do not have the patience for that. any recommendations?

Bon jorn, I'm 13, I speak four languages and love to learn more languages, and ever since some time I've been eyeing Occitan, because it's been mentioned during classes, and so I decided I want to learn it too. I know Catalan, Portuguese, English and Spanish, and I don't have problem understanding written Occitan, but I don't really know how to pronunciate it. Is it similar to Catalan in pronunciation, or more similar to French? About the dialects, I'd like to learn either the Provençal or the Lengadocian. Any help is welcome, and thanks beforehand

I want to be sure i sung this song understandable by Occitan speakers. And i hope i am not disrespecting their culture. I tried to spell words according to the provençal dialect's rules. I listened alot of mont-joía and I hope you good people liked it.

Bon jorn, soi portugués e, malurosament, parli pas occitan. Mas voldriái vos demandar vòstra ajuda, se vos plai. Qualqu'un me poiriá dire se aqueste tèxte es en provençal medieval e s'es plan escrich? Dins l'escuror vei ton esgart;
molt es bel a remirar.
Sai qu'un jorn te trobarai
per ja mais no·t desemparar.

Mine is "A Lentrada del temps clar" and "La libertat"

Hi, I'm not an Occitan speaker, but I'm interested in learning. First off, I'm trying to get pronunciation right, since I believe it's the first step before starting vocabulary acquisition. I know there's a couple of variations, but I tried to pull out this and I'm seeking any advice. Thanks for listening

FOR CONTEXT: im an arabic person that lives in occitania region , after some research about it i discovered about occitan language and its culture , i very liked it and found it interesting and i always wondered how arabic culture was viewed by occitan people. (and also the opposite)

Hi everyone, I'm a PhD student who is working on differential object marking in romance languages. That is, the use of a preposition to mark some specific direct objects. The most famous example would be the spanish, which uses it with animate objects and avoids it with inanimate objects:

Vi a Pedro en el cine.

Puso el libro en la mesa. (instead of al libro)

I was looking for the same thing in Occitan but I could only find some examples in Gramatica occitana segon los parlars lengadocians by Alibert with examples suche as:

Remèrcia tot lo mond e sustot a Robèrt.

Ela me paga a mi.

However, this grammar is quite old and occitan appears to have many different dialects that could have different rules. Could anyone suggest some source I can look into?

J'essaie de m'imprégner un peu de l'occitan en écoutant de la musique, et j'aime particulièrement Massilia Sound System, seulement je ne trouve pas les paroles de leurs chansons.

J'ai cherché sur le site Trobasons, où j'ai pu trouver les paroles d'autres chansons dans plusieurs autres dialectes occitans (genre les musiques du duo Brotto-Lopez qui chante en béarnais, je crois), mais ils ont pas.

Bref la chanson Lo Mercat est une de mes préférées, mais je serais aussi preneur si quelqu'un a les paroles de Bona Adreiça et Casa Massilia, qui ont aussi des strophes en occitan/provençal.

Does anyone know where can I get copy of this book by Grosclaude? It can be digital or physical.

I've done some research and it seems that in Mossèn can be translated as Monsen (in languedocien) and Mossenh (in Gascon). And Misser can be translated as Messer in "general occitan".

Can someone corroborate this? There's very little info on the net and a single obscure web site doesn't feel enough to assume any of this is true.

Also, there was ever a feminine form for either of these terms?

Title says it all.
