this is the biggest parallel between ireland and wales, even down to being asked "do you speak the language" with the most common answer "no"

We don't speak it because people that could only conquer us by sheer numbers made it illegal for us to speak it. They brutalized us when we tried to speak it.

Welsh is not that difficult! it's much easier than Russian or Ukrainian or other Slavic languages. I'm a Welsh learner in Caerdydd. I skipped the entry level course by doing it on Duolingo everyday. I'm taking the foundation level course (A2) now. Don't lose confidence!

A lot of people use it. Although Cardiff's dominant language is English, it does have more than 50,000 Welsh speakers. (Cardiff University's number is 100,000 but I doubt it) And many kids go to Welsh-medium schools here. I'm just a learner, but I love Welsh.
