Language. In Catalonia, there are two co-official languages, Catalan and Spanish. Most of the signpost and road signs will be in Catalan, even though in some strategic points information is provided in Catalan, Spanish, French and English, or it can be provided in such languages by the information offices. It is worth mentioning that the native population of Sort has a peculiar and distinct accent, and some of the words from the regional dialect, the pallarès, can be found in several literary works.

Regarding religion, Spain is a non-denominational state; however, the main religion is Catholicism. In the church of Sant Feliu de Sort there are masses held each day of the year:
- From the last Sunday in October to the last Sunday in March:
Every day of the week, at 19 h and on Sundays also at 12.30 h
- From the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October:
Every day of the week, at 20 h and on Sundays also at 12.30 h
The welcoming churches in villages still hold religious services on a more occasional basis.

On 1 August, it is the day of our Patron Saint, Sant Feliu.
On Palm Sunday, during the Easter week, and on Christmas, the Christmas Eve’s Mass, are still some of the most popular and well-attended religious manifestations in the parish of Sort.

The aplecs, popular gatherings at a hermitage are also very busy with people. There are about twenty aplecs held each year in El Pallars Sobirà, and more than half of them are taking place during the month of May, when spring is truly felt all over the place. In such gatherings, apart from attending the mass, there is usually a popular meal outdoors. Those most well attended by the people of Sort are in Arboló, first Sunday in May, and in Solé, May 1.
