    Accents diacrítics

    Ús en Llengua Catalana

    • Els accents diacrítics s'utilitzen per diferenciar paraules que s'escriuen de forma similar però tenen significats diferents.

    • Aporten informació sobre la pronunciació i la funció gramatical de les paraules.

    Exemples d'ús

    • "sí" (afirmació) vs. "si" (condicional): "Sí, vindré si em truques."
    • "déu" (entitat divina) vs. "deu" (número 10): "Déu ajuda als qui s'ajuden" i "Ella té deu anys."
    • "mà" (extremitat) vs. "ma" (possessiu): "La meva mà és petita."

    Regles d'accentuació

    • Accent greu (è): S'utilitza en paraules com "més" (comparatiu) i "lèxic".
    • Accent agut (é): Es troba en "té" (tercer persona del verb tenir) i "café".
    • Hi ha paraules com "tè", "pè", "mà" que requereixen accent per la seva diacriticitat.
    • Les paraules homònimes (mateix so però significats diferents) necessiten el diacrític per a la seva correcta identificació.

    Diacritics in the Catalan Language

    • Diacritics are used to distinguish between words that are spelled similarly but have different meanings.
    • Diacritics are essential in the Catalan language to avoid confusion in written communication.
    • They provide information about the pronunciation and grammatical function of words.

    Examples of Use

    • "sí" (affirmation) vs "si" (conditional): "Sí, vindré si em truques." (Yes, I will come if you call me.)
    • "déu" (divine entity) vs "deu" (number 10): "Déu ajuda als qui s'ajuden" (God helps those who help themselves.) and "Ella té deu anys." (She is ten years old.)
    • "mà" (limb) vs "ma" (possessive): "La meva mà és petita." (My hand is small.)

    Accentuation Rules

    • Grave accent (è): Used in words like "més" (comparative) and "lèxic".
    • Acute accent (é): Found in "té" (third person of the verb "tenir" - to have) and "café"
    • Words like "tè", "pè", "mà" require accents due to their diacritical nature.
    • Homonyms (same sound but different meanings) need diacritics for correct identification.

    Accents Diacritics in Catalan

    • Accents diacritics are punctuation marks used to distinguish Catalan words with the same spelling but different meanings or grammatical functions.

    • Purpose:

      • Clarify pronunciation.
      • Differentiate homophones (words that sound the same).

    • Context:

      • Primarily used in written Catalan to avoid confusion.

    Examples

    • "és" vs. "es":

      • "és" is the third-person singular form of the verb "ser" (to be).
      • "es" is a reflexive pronoun.

    • "més" vs. "mes":

      • "més" is a comparative adjective, indicating a greater amount.
      • "mes" is a unit of time, equivalent to a month.

    • "tè" vs. "te":

      • "tè" is the second-person singular imperative form of the verb "tenir" (to have).
      • "te" is a pronoun.

    • "dóna" vs. "dona":

      • "dóna" is the third-person singular form of the verb "donar" (to give).
      • "dona" is a noun referring to a female person.

    • "cònic" vs "conic":

      • "cònic" is related to a cone.
      • "conic" is an incorrect form without an accent.
