Cwmbraic - Cumbric

Here he is again.... well, here I am again! I've decided to tell the world about ANOTHER Celtic language that wouldn't mind a bit of a hand. It's revival is slowly taking shape and more and more things are available, freely, on the net. The ancient language of CWMBRU (Cumbria).
As with my DEUNANSEK (Devonian) video, I will be posting 'real' videos (and not just picture thingy ones.... or whatever) in due time.... Patience is a virtue....

Sadly, Cumbric is merely a slight variant of Old Welsh (hencimraic). If Cumbric is to be revived, learn some Old Welsh.

If we're reviving Cumbric, shouldn't we be reviving Old Devonian (Dewnansek Koth) too?

@PennyTraition we are one celtic solid force

Are you talking about NORTH Wales or SOUTH Wales? In SOUTH Wales, especially near the borders, It's all just SOUTH, SOUTH...NORTH Wales is hated. Even in documentaries about the,er,wonderful Owain Glyndwr,or whomever, it goes on about Hereford...Strange part of WALES, but at least it's not the NORTH! Same old same old...I am a strange mix of Cumbrian, Border Alba,Irish (Eire), and NORTH Welsh....don't think it's the same as the South, it's NOT! It drives me nuts Cumbric is not recognised!

@tchorveiik Actually, the story of most English people being of an Anglo Saxon majority is a myth, most are Celtic. Even if that were not true, the Celtic presence was very strong in the west country. Cornwall (Kernow), Devon, Somerset, and Dorset.
