The Welsh language, known as Cymraeg, is a Celtic language primarily spoken in Wales. It is one of the oldest languages in Europe, with roots tracing back over 1,500 years. Welsh is recognized as a minority language and has seen a revival in recent decades, supported by government initiatives and educational programs. Welsh is distinct from English and has its own unique grammar and vocabulary. It uses a variety of sounds and letters not found in English, such as the letters "ll" and "ch." The language is an important part of Welsh culture and identity, with many people actively promoting its use in daily life and media.
