I’m 14 and nearly fluent in welsh and it is sad to see that not many people speak it in the valleys anymore…

Hi Paul, I just came across this blog post whilst researching for my own article. I’m writing about the unique South Wales Valleys dialect, would I be able to email you a few questions or give you a quick call?

Thanks,

Helen

Hector, that is very interesting I wonder if this is linked at all to the Welsh migration to Patagonia?
Regarding Cymraeg- Cymreag, many apologies for the error.

Hiya but!

Strangely enough there is a very popular word in Argentine Spanish for a place where you can lie down snugly and safely like in a small bed. The word is “cucha” and it sounds like cutch plus a final “a” as in the word “about”. Fancy that!

On a recent visit to Wales from New Zealand the rhythms of the Welsh accent appealed to me. The rise and fall of the sentences.

I was delighted to here Paul say ‘Boyo’ when speaking to his grandson. As a Kiwi that was the only word of Welsh that we had heard from New Zealand.
