Does it look right in Spain if the phrase Inglés al español y catalán doesn't use capital letters for español y catalán? Thanks

Hmm, I think I'll go for capitals as in: Inglés al Español y Catalán

To me it does. The names of languages aren't normally capitalized in Spanish.

Here is a headline from today's El País. Granted, holandés is being used as an adjective, but they do the same thing for the languages.

Un 'reality' holandés para asilados políticos a punto de ser expulsados

Hi, Birdland. I'm confused. Why do you say you are going to go for capitals? I wouldn't capitalize anything but the first word, if it is a title. The names of languages aren't usually capitalized.
