Make the locals happy and try yourself at Catalan!
if you say a few words in Catalan I assure you that people will be so happy, as foreigners tend to learn Spanish instead of Catalan language, so say :
Bon dia for hello
Adéu -goodbye
Gràcies - thanks
Quan Val? - how much is it?
M'agrada /No m'agrada - I like/don't like
Molt bé - very good
