Set out in the form of a memoir, Stephen Rule goes about tackling the challenges and celebrating the successes of the Welsh language in an attempt to establish the language as one which has the ability to live in the lives of the people of Wales and the world. As one who has learnt the language, earned his degree in it, and now teaches it to young people and adults alike, Stephen's personal journey to become fluent has been a nightmare and a dream, has opened doors to another world, and has urged him to challenge both the way Welsh is delivered via education as well as general stereotypes and misconceptions surrounding the language.Written in English, the book is arranged into six chapters; Cymraeg a Fi (Welsh and I - Stephen's own experiences of learning Welsh and how he overcame struggles), Addysgu'r Gymraeg (Teaching Welsh - ideas he uses on a daily basis that have worked to inspire learners of all ages), Dysgu'r Iaith (Learning Welsh - encouraging those who wish to take up learning Welsh or who can become frustrated with certain elements of acquiring Welsh), Pam Lai'r Ddwy? (Why not both? - questioning what place Welsh can have in the lives of the reader and the nation as a modern community), Amddiffyn ein Cymraeg (Defending our Welsh - the lengths to which people have gone, inspired by their love for the language, to ensure its survival as a living tongue), and Iaith Arbennig (A Special Language - celebrating how the Welsh language has shaped the lives of so many people as well as the entire world).The book can become a fantastic companion to people thinking about learning Welsh but aren't sure where to begin, people who are currently learning and attempting to deal with the challenges of the journey, teachers of Welsh in English-medium schools craving dynamic tactics and ideas not easily found in conventional 'how to' education books, people who speak the language and who are keen to aid a non-Welsh-speaking partner or friend on their own journeys to fluency, people who question the morals of supporting such an old language, and people of all ages who seek opportunities to ymfalchïo (take pride in) in a language that belongs to them as much as it has belonged to all its speakers across centuries. By following his own personal experiences - of being one with a burning desire to learn Welsh, went on to learn it, now teach it and, on a daily basis, attempt to share the delight and value of our language to others - Stephen's hope is that this book can inspire individuals (or even an entire nation, with a bit of luck) to realise what part the Welsh language can play in the future of our nation.In essence, this book is for anyone who possesses any connection to Wales or her language.

The existence of the Welsh-language can come as a surprise to those who assume that English is the foundation language of Britain. However, J. R. R. Tolkien described Welsh as the 'senior language of the men of Britain'. Visitors from outside Wales may be intrigued by the existence of Welsh and will want to find out how a language which has, for at least fifteen hundred years, been the closest neighbour of English, enjoys such vibrancy, bearing in mind that English has obliterated languages thousands of miles from the coasts of England. This book offers a broad historical survey of Welsh-language culture from sixth-century heroic poetry to television and pop culture in the early twenty-first century. The public status of the language is considered and the role of Welsh is compared with the roles of other of the non-state languages of Europe. This new edition of The Welsh Language offers a full assessment of the implications of the linguistic statistics produced by the 2011 Census. The volume contains maps and plans showing the demographic and geographic spread of Welsh over the ages, charts examining the links between words in Welsh and those in other Indo-European languages, and illustrations of key publications and figures in the history of the language. It concludes with brief guides to the pronunciation, the dialects and the grammar of Welsh.

The comparative analysis of Welsh and English found in this book is based on a translation corpus consisting of just over thirty novels and autobiographies from the late nineteenth century up to the early twenty-first century. Many of the original Welsh texts contain stylistic features which, in a context of intense bilingualism with English, benefit from the deliberate discussion and analysis in this volume. However, the work is intentionally descriptive rather than prescriptive, laying out patterns that are observed in the corpus, and making them available to Welsh writers and translators to adopt if or as required. As similarly the classic work in the field by Vinay and Darbelnet, this book examines its topics through the lens of translation techniques such as transposition, modulation and adaptation.

In 1971, Californian congressman Thomas M. Rees told the US House of Representatives that ‘very little has been written of what the Welsh have contributed in all walks of life in the shaping of American history’. This book is the first systematic attempt to both recount and evaluate the considerable yet undervalued contribution made by Welsh immigrants and their immediate descendants to the development of the United States. Their lives and achievements are set within a narrative outline of American history that emphasises the Welsh influence upon the colonists’ rejection of British rule, and upon the establishment, expansion and industrialisation of the new American nation. This book covers both the famous and the unsung who worked and fought to acquire greater prosperity and freedom for themselves and for their nation.

Working Welsh offers a new approach to building up and consolidating learners’ fluency and confidence, focusing on the mechanics – the words and phrases that build and drive sentences and make them fit together. 200 Welsh words and phrases are listed alphabetically, explained in clear and accessible language, and given ample exemplification to illustrate their meaning and use. All instances of mutation are marked with the usual typographic signs, and cross-references are given throughout to related entries. Grammatical appendices and an English index round off the manual. Working Welsh is an innovative resource for post-beginner students wishing to explore and master the principal discourse-drivers in modern spoken and standard Welsh.
