A New Language

I have spent a total of 321 days in my life in Wales- nearly a full year, and I can only say three words in Welsh; Pryfisgol Cymru Abertawe.  That means The University of Wales, Swansea, and I am pretty sure that I don't pronounce it right when I attempt to say it.  

The two offical languages of Wales are Welsh and English- so all road signs, etc. are printed in both languages.  These signs have made me very familiar with the "look" of many Welsh words (ysgol, adelaid, etc.) but I have no clue how to pronounce them, or even what they mean in some cases!

I love learning new languages, so I figure its about high time I learn the language of my honorary homelan: Wales.  I have downloaded a podcast from itunes (cleverly titled "Learn Welsh Podcast") and I am ready to get at it.

Who is with me? : )
