>Scottish celtic languages have been basically dead for years
>Irish in Ulster is all but extinct
>Irish in ROI is dying more every day
>Manx and Cornish are dead memes
>Meanwhile in ol' obscure Wales... 580,000 native Welsh speakers, easy to find people speaking it on the street, language is alive and well

What's the moral of this story?

It's that if you're just a sheepfucker who can shoot a few arrows well for some English folk, no one's going to bother to tell you what you can and can't say

Why didn't more celtic nations follow the Welsh example?

Wales were smart enough to just obey.

>>51811981
also irish is starting to recover, especially in urban neo-gaeltachts
and only 20% of welsh speak welsh, not exactly perfect

>scottish celtic
gaelic
no language is called celtic
and btw, how do you explain mannin and cornwall? they were good kuks and their languages became memes
and the scots kuked themselves. their nobility chose to speak scots instead of scottish.
>>
>>51813261
Who cares. They still have their language, that's what's important.

>>51813410

irish will recover. welsh will not be independent for a long time however

Says the person who's language is dead. Good cück yourself, bitchboi.

>>51811981
The Welsh simply started properly teaching Welsh in school. The Irish teach Irish at school, but they dont teach it to fluency so its completely pointless.
>>
>>51813184
>also irish is starting to recover, especially in urban neo-gaeltachts

Let me laugh harder
>>
Celtic languages are a meme, if you try to make it the primary language over english you actively put yourself/everyone in your country at a disadvantage. I have no idea why people would want to learn it when it's so expensive and pointless other then muh heritage

t. anglo-celtic
>>
>>51813383
Scottish had various celtic languages that were wiped out, Gaelic only came later and was too, wiped out

Cornwall maybe if they could have shot arrows as well as the Welsh

Manx is a meme

Gaelic was always just a highland meme in Scotland. The more populous lowlands were part of the English kingdom of Northumbria and were speaking Old English over a millennia ago.
>>
>>51811981
Because Scots and Irish have more to their culture than just a language? I couldn't honestly tell you anything about Welsh culture other than their language. They're pretty much the same as the English otherwise. For me anyway.
