Animal found by boy from Barcelona, perhaps (7)
I believe the answer is:
catalan
'barcelona perhaps' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'animal found by boy' is the wordplay.
'animal' becomes 'cat' (cats are animals).
'found by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'boy' becomes 'alan' (I've seen this before).
'cat'+'alan'='CATALAN'
'from' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for catalan that I've seen before include "from part of Spain" , "Language of NE Spain" , "From one Spanish region" , "Of NE Spanish region" , "One from NE Spain" .)
