@olemanofcury thanks for sharing.

@windstorm1000 Actually Cornish is more closer related to Breton language. It shares about 85% of basic vocabulary while only about 50% with welsh. However, Welsh, Kernewek, and Brezhoneg are lingustically VERY similar :D

@windstorm1000 all gaelic languages are related

Subtitles would have been nice. I don't know anything about the Cornish language and was interested in finding out a bit.

@rgur90x,And it's also a perfect example of what spoken English sounds like to a person who doesn't understand it.Pretty neat.

I read somewhere that my surname, Skidmore, is cornish? Is there a way to find out if that's true?

@squirell1952 It's semantically accurate. They weren't England's mountains and pastures then, but they are now. We still call pre-Columbian America 'America'.
This sounds exactly like English except you can't understand a word. XD

@Daan892 Ain't that sad, dear friend, not only to sever your roots with your own hands, but often also to take pride in partaking of the language of your conquerors? I don't know if this the case with Indonesia, but it's known to have happened all around the world, during the colonization era. Languages are a shining example of the multifacetedness of the human mind, they should be revered, not exiled into oblivion.
