Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted October 15, 2002 I never knew Welsh was a language as well, I thought it was just a nationality. Oh wait nevermind, my dad was telling me something about that, how when he went to Wales their street names would have like 20 letters or something because they'd be in Welsh.

Guest Pilgrim Report post Posted October 15, 2002 Well i'm from Wales and like 80% of the population i honestly couldn't tell you what that says. Hope welshjericomark knows so at least someone from Gods greates country doesnt look so bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Incandenza Report post Posted October 15, 2002 About how much of Wales actually speaks this language? I didn't see anything at that site I linked, but, I must confess to not looking very hard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Marshall Report post Posted October 15, 2002 The stuff I want translated was on a letter an old girlfriend sent me after I had spilt up with her. I just found it when I was having a sort out. I've just always wondered what it meant. I dont think many people speak welsh anymore, they dont even teach it in schools. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Pilgrim Report post Posted October 15, 2002 It is now compulsory in schools and in rural areas is still spoken. I'm pretty sure that only about 19% of the population can speak it fluently, thats down from around 50-60 % in the early 1900's. It doesn't look good though, even if you force people to learn a language that they don't like it doesn't mean they'll use it in every day life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Marshall Report post Posted October 15, 2002 Because its so f'n weird, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Pilgrim Report post Posted October 15, 2002 Nope its because people when older don't see the use of it when everythings in English, and when your younger do you really want to have to learn another language. Plus what they teach you isn't enough to really get a conversation going. It is a hard language to master, basically its on everones to do list. One day your going to really try to learn it out of patriotic pride, but you never get round to it. As long as you know how to swear at the english without them knowing its enough.
