Where it comes from

Borrowed from Catalan Barça, clipping of Barcelona, shortened form of Futbol Club Barcelona, keeping the Catalan spelling rules. Since this football team is a symbol of the city of Barcelona, this word has been associated with the whole city, although it's wrong to use Barça to refer to the city itself; instead, one would use Barna.

proper noun Barca

  1. abbreviation, clipping Clipping of Futbol Club Barcelona
