A list of puns related to "Cornish Language"
Gaelic the language with the most resources at least outside of Europe (enough that Rosetta Stone even offers it as a course). I have a general interest in Celtic culture because my grandma played around with Wicca and other paganism involving Celts so eventually I would expand to Cymraeg and other Celtic languages that survived today.
So would you recommend going right ahead learning Gaelic to make it easier to learn Gaidhlig? Would knowing Brezhoneg help with Gaelic and same with knowing other surviving Celtic languages too? Would knowing any of the modern Celtic Languages including Kernewek be a big starting point for knowing the ancient languages those of Celtic pagan religions that have been dead for centuries and are now only being reconstructed?
Dyth da! I don't speak Cornish very well, but I made this little game with a few facts about it and its history. It's called Language Museum: Cornish and you can play it here: https://morgangbrown.itch.io/language-museum-cornish. If you have any feedback or corrections please let me know!
Iβm planning to add to this thread over the coming days with more useful resources.
After about nine years of trying to learn the language using various distance learning resources and audio courses Iβm finally doing classes online with city lit in London.
The first lesson was great and I would certainly encourage anyone interested in learning the language to express their interest.
The course is very affordable and I believe they might have financial help available. For anyone interested here is the link

I will post up more resources here in the coming days in case people interested.
Oll aβn gwella.
Cornish has been revived practically on its own despite the last native speaker dying in the late 1700's. Other Celtic languages have a variety of success stories of their revitalization efforts. Considering that the physical homeland Cornwall isn't going anywhere anytime soon, where do you see the language 50-100 years from now?
Hi! I'm Chris (19M) from England. In a few months I'm off to study languages at University (Russian, German, French and Japanese) but before then I'll have a lot of time to devote to learning some other languages.
I have an especial interest in the minority languages of Europe and all languages who's grammar is interesting and different from a linguistic point of view. I have experience learning quite a few languages already, so I don't think I'll be a too demanding student.
So if you're interested in teaching me your language, or just getting to know another polyglot-wannabe, feel free to send me a message on Instagram, my account is @baylissch, but make sure you say that it's because of the language exchange that you're messaging me, otherwise I'll think it's spam.
Hey, I'm planning on getting a tattoo written in Cornish in memoriam of my mother who was Cornish, she always called me her baby bear lol. Anyway, not many people do speak Cornish nowadays and it's a bit of a dying language so it's a bit hard to verify the syntax properly.
I'm planning to have "Ors Gorm Kelyn" inked on me. Can someone verify if that definately means brown bear cub please. Afaik Gorm means dark brown, but no one really knew the word for just brown (if there is one).
Iβm not sure how ancient this particular tradition is, but the page I will link to provide a video of something that is definitely giving off pagan vibes as far as Iβm concerned. Itβs a combination of ceremony and song with a lot of Cornish language used. I thought this community may at least find it interesting.

I used to hear the carol "Holly bears a berry" as a kid sung in English, but the last verse or two was often sung in Cornish. This entire song is non-English, but the last lines sounded very familiar.

I have no knowledge of the language. Could someone confirm?
Were there any known Celtic language enclaves in other parts of England which persisted for a long time? Surely there must have been some individual towns and cities that continued speaking Celtic languages at least a couple of hundred years after most had stopped.
Gaelic the language with the most resources at least outside of Europe (enough that Rosetta Stone even offers it as a course). I have a general interest in Celtic culture because my grandma played around with Wicca and other paganism involving Celts so eventually I would expand to Cymraeg and other Celtic languages that survived today.
So would you recommend going right ahead learning Gaelic to make it easier to learn Gaidhlig? Would knowing Brezhoneg help with Gaelic and same with knowing other surviving Celtic languages too? Would knowing any of the modern Celtic Languages including Kernewek be a big starting point for knowing the ancient languages those of Celtic pagan religions that have been dead for centuries and are now only being reconstructed?

And is it possible to do a similar thing to Gaelic, Irish, manx and and Cornish today to save these languages?
