Welshness (2)
Dafydd ap Gwilym, you may now ask who, was a Welshman universally recognized as one of the greatest of the medieval romantic poets; I'm sorry that not understanding his poetry doesn't mean that you feel less Welsh, but it does mean that you can't contribute to the wholeness of our society! We are English speakers with Welsh 'Taffy' accents that have nothing to contribute beyond the 18th century of a country with a pre-Roman heritage. The relatively new chapels with their concomitant choirs are already dying out, no more do we hear the Welsh hymns in what was surround sound at the Arms Park in Cardiff before it existed in modern technology . It logically follows that if the language is in a sorry state then so must be the country. A country that favours a foreign language with no want nor worthy consideration of its own is it worth saving? Sorry I forgot there's a rugby match on saturday, may we keep this in abeyance at least for the next two months?
