I'm teaching myself Cornish, I found a couple of websites. My partner is Scottish ( born in there ). He is not real keen on the English either. We practice Cornish together, but I'm not very good....I'm sure its my Aussie accent, bet I sound ridiculous. I've been to Cornwall and if I ever go back I will be able to ask for a pint of beer in Cornish
The biggest problem i have with Cornish is looking at the words and wondering how to actually say them, i have an idea on how to pronounce them, but im not entirely sure. Like with Dydh da, i thought it was ''died dah'' but it is actually ''dith dah''...i think.
I may actually meet some of you lot from the forum now lol, im being forced to move to Cornwall.
I can't read it all and have no idea how to begin to say a word when I read them but getting a little better, except I have to play a word over and over again before I say it. Anyone know of some websites where you can hear the words and I would prefer a basic one at this stage.
