This article studies the coexistence between the Spanish and the Catalan inside private texts in the seventeenth century. We will see, through the specific case of Dietari by Jaume Ramon Vila, how sources written in different languages are incorporated into a single diary and how the authors make use of the mechanism of translation to combine their personal experiences with other types of narratives, such as, for example news or printed relationships.
