Catalan term or phrase: són cultura catalana | Hi everyone, I'm working on a pamphlet called "Coneixes la cultura catalana?" which will be distributed to tourists across the Països Catalans. It covers various topics that are part of Catalan culture (gastronomy, sports, performing arts, music, traditions, literature, etc.) and is structured as a Q & A. Every category has a question, and then answers by saying that X, Y, and Z "són cultura catalana." Here are a few examples: PRODUCTES GASTRONÒMICS • Saps que exportem productes valorats a totes les taules? Els vi i el cava, l’oli d’oliva, la paella, els calçots i l’all i oli són cultura catalana. ESPORTS • Saps que formem alguns dels millors esportistes d’elit? Xavi Hernández, Pau Gasol, Josep Guardiola, Rafael Nadal i Dani Pedrosa són cultura catalana. ARQUITECTURA • Saps qui ha projectat alguns dels edificis més innovadors? Gaudí, Sert, Bofill i Calatrava són cultura catalana. ARTS PLÀSTIQUES • Saps qui ha creat algunes de les obres mestres de les avantguardes? Dalí, Miró, Tàpies, Maillol, Alfaro i Barceló són cultura catalana. I have considered a variety of options for the phrase "són cultura catalana", but none of them sound quite right to me. Here are the options I've come up with so far: "are Catalan culture" "are all part of Catalan culture." "are all examples of Catalan culture" "are all products of Catalan culture" "all represent Catalan culture" "all fly the flag for Catalan culture" "are Catalan culture" strikes me as sounding a bit non-native; the options with "examples", "products", and "represent" seem to be missing the point -- that these people, traditions, etc., ARE Catalan culture, not just products of it. Any better options out there, or thoughts on these ones? Thanks a lot for all of your help! |
