How's it different from Welsh? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHLaewZE61w
God I hate this shit
They do it with the Maori language here too
Half of it is made up on the spot

It is related to Welsh but they are not mutually intelligible anymore. It is actually closer to Breton than any other language.

Of course they're not mutually intelligible, considering that one of them is extinct.

The modernised, revived versions that are studied today are not mutually intelligible.
Reviving dead languages is really cool, and promotes an understanding of culture and history. Good luck to the Irish, the Navajo, the Cornish, and the Basques.

I like all language revivals

That's the fun part, anon
I mean it was originally made up on the spot as well
We act like there's something special about old languages because none of us were around to remember the guy walking around calling stuff random sounds and trying to get other people to do it, must have been really cringey at first
the only cool revived language is hebrew
all the others are gay and literally nobody uses them

I'm not particularly fond of the idea but I'll let it slide
I wish all languages died and we spoke only English.
In fact, I wish all non-American people died so Americans could take over the Earth.

If we gotta only have one universal language, please God make it Icelandic or Finnish, not that sad joke English is.
You're next, Gaulish, you're next...
I believe that all language revivals are a good thing.

I agree. I'm all for there being one language everyone speaks (might as well be English cause I'm not gonna fucking learn Mandarin) but you shouldn't let the tongue of your forefathers be forgotten.
I really need to get back to learning Cherokee.
