Are you Mexican? Quite a lot of Catalans were settled in Mexico at the end of the Spanish Civil War in 1939. How much is many? 10,000? Exactly 24.000. Many of them were scientists, writers, poets, thinkers... www.coljal.edu.mx/est_catalanes.htm |

Yeah I know, it was mostly andalusians. I believe the andalusian dialect was the one brought over to the Americas and is the one we speak. Are you Mexican? Quite a lot of Catalans were settled in Mexico at the end of the Spanish Civil War in 1939. Yes I am, although I live in the US. Hmm, I saw that link of yours, my father happens to be from the state of Jalisco. |

Thanks for the info. They fled during Spanish Civil War ? In 1939-40, at the end of the Spanish Civil War. They went to Mexico because it was a friendly country for the Republican cause. |

Are Catalan last names different than Spanish last names? For sure. Absolutly. The Catalan language isn't the Spanish one despite both are from Latin roots. |
