How many languages are spoken around the world? Where do everyday words come from? What do you know about Catalan grammar, regional dialects or fictional languages from films?
With El Llengut, every question is a chance to discover something new. This original and entertaining trivia game invites players to explore the richness of the Catalan language and the fascinating linguistic diversity of our planet.
Created by Andreu Monfà and Patrícia Ortin, El Llengut combines knowledge, intuition and fun in a game designed for curious minds, word lovers and anyone fascinated by languages.
Six categories, endless discoveries
The game's 200 cards take you on a journey through six linguistic worlds:
-
History: travel through the history of languages and discover the events, people and texts that shaped their development.
-
Grammar: tackle conjugations, pronouns and the fascinating structures that make languages work.
-
Entertainment: explore languages from films, television series, literature and fictional universes.
-
Geolinguistics: discover where languages are spoken, how many people speak them and how they relate to one another.
-
Dictionaries: challenge yourself with word meanings, etymology, spelling and vocabulary.
-
Translation: test your knowledge of false friends, untranslatable words and surprising expressions from different languages.
How to play
The rules are simple: roll the illustrated die to select a category. Another player reads you a question, and it's up to you to find the correct answer.
Each successfully completed category earns you a colourful insect token. Be the first to collect all six insects, claim the chameleon and become the ultimate El Llengut champion!
Questions come in different difficulty levels and formats, including open-ended questions, multiple-choice answers and true-or-false challenges.
You don't need to be a linguist to enjoy the game. Curiosity, intuition and a little luck are just as important.
Learn, play and share
El Llengut is much more than a trivia game. It's an entertaining way to discover the Catalan language, explore other cultures and realise that even a wrong answer can teach you something interesting.
Perfect for game nights with friends, family gatherings or as a thoughtful gift for teachers, language enthusiasts, curious minds and anyone who loves words.
Its compact, board-free format makes it easy to take on holiday, weekend trips or anywhere you feel like sharing a fun linguistic challenge.
