My family is Welsh and I was born in Wales but we moved away when I was 9. I was always sad that, apart from a few words, I couldnāt speak my own language. I am really enjoying the chance to do something about that now. Thank you for making it possible.

I have been a Welsh football fan for many years and travel away as many times as I can and I have met some fantastic people, many of whom speak Welsh and I want to join them in speaking our own language

Because of a wild series of unexpected life circumstances, I moved to Wales last year, nes i symud i Gymru y llynedd. As an American if you asked me what do you know about Wales, itās a tiny country next to England where there are a lot of sheep and they have a language that inspired Elvish in The Lord of the Rings. So, standard stereotypes, not much. But I mean, what isnāt there to love about Wales, dwiān caru popeth yma, I love everything here. I thought it would be disrespectful to move to Wales and speak no Welsh, so I thought I should at least be able to have an interaction at a cafe or shop in Welsh. But the language, y iaith, really does have this presence and - I mean whatās the right word here - vibe, I suppose. The way it looks and sounds. The more I learned, the more I needed to be fluent. Now my life goals include things like play with my band on Noson Lawen play at yr Eisteddfod Genedlaethol, translate a book into Cymraeg, help spread the language in a meaningful way.

I am Welsh born, my grandmother was a Welsh speaker, but moved to England when my father was 7, so he never got to speak the language. He (and my English mother!) moved back to Wales just before I was born and I have always wanted to be able to speak the language. Although I have knowledge of quite a few words in Welsh, stringing them together to make an intelligent sentence eludes me! Also sometimes when I do try to speak to someone in Welsh, I just donāt have a quick enough brain to understand what they say back to me. I will keep trying though!

Keeping on trying is the key - youāll keep on getting better 
Itās my heritage, and Iāve always regretted that I havenāt been able to speak the language.

itās an intellectual challenge which makes me work my brain in different ways and will, eventually, help me to converse with and enjoy the company of hundreds of thousands more people.

and one thing I hope will happenā¦that I can hold a complete conversation, in Welsh, with my partner and also get involved in the conversations with his family. I actually want to be able to speak in Welsh at the airport in October when we go on holiday and no-one know what weāre talking about!
