I dreamt I was at a party at a football ground (soccer field to the North Americans) - actually on the pitch. To get in, you had to pay at a parking metre. I had no money, so I walked off. At this point, two police cars turned onto the pitch and the officers went to see if the party was lawful - com...

I wasted about 4 years worth of free time trying (unsuccessfully) to learn Japanese. I have recently spent a fair bit of time on Welsh and French. I wanted to take an A-Level in French, but couldn't because I didn't have a GSCE in it. My secondary school only offered French, and the teacher was an a...

My accent is a weird mix of Welsh and West Country. This is due to living in Gloucestershire and then moving to Mid Wales.

Actuellement, l'oreille me fait mal. Elle m'agace beaucoup! Je devrais aller au medecin.

I've always wanted to go to India. It must be an extraordinary place.
At the moment, my ear is hurting. I should go to the doctor.

Not everyone is bilingual. My dad tried to buy a tractor from a bloke in Llanrwst, but he (the bloke, not my dad) was monolingual in Welsh. The bloke had to get his nephew round to translate. How many years ago was this? I'd bet you any money he'll be dead now. In any case, monolinguals aren't gene...

I think you may have missed the point of bilingual signage. Realistically in all probability no Welsh speaker is ever going to have trouble with an English sign, since everyone is functionally bilingual and the vast majority of people are native speakers of English alongside Welsh. But that doesn't...

Directly, it could become something like [ʃ], [ɕ], or [ç] - perhaps even more than one of them, depending on the surrounding environment - and from there there are of course many ways those consonants could go. Also, there is a certain tendency - at least among English speakers, not sure about othe...
