In England, we longer hear Cornish spoken, or even the more difficult dialects such as the one near my home in Yorkshire, 'Slowwit' (where even 'yes' was 'yus', not the Yorkshire 'aye'). It is only in recent years that Gaelic in Wales and Scotland were given legal protection and a place in schools. This is repeated throughout Europe with Basque, etc. <br /><br />Wasalaam<br /><br />TMAJulaybibhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01643429412743650113noreply@blogger.com
