Diolch yn fawr for writing this. I’m English and a Welsh learner living in Abertawe. I was meant to start my second entry level course this morning but only two of us signed up so the course can’t run. I have been trying to learn Welsh for the last 18 months and there are so many barriers but I will not let them stop me because I feel so passionately about it; in part because I feel deep shame about what the English did to the Welsh language so I feel it my duty to counteract that. I also fucking love Welsh. And I fucking love you for writing this article. Soz for the swears. And thanks again. x
