Languages of Andorra
The historic and official language of Andorra is Catalan, a Romance language. Because of immigration, historical links, and close geographic proximity, Spanish and French are commonly spoken.

Spanish was the most common mother tongue in Andorra according to mother tongue percentage statistics by the Andorran Government released in 2018.
