(Think Darth Vader.) das = tas (father) with second state mutations t->d following dha (your)." As far as I remember, Darth Vader stressed "I" in the sentence "I am your father." - "Obi Wan never told you the truth about what happened to your father." - "He told me enough. He told me YOU killed him." - "No.(hiss) I am your father." In Cornish this would call for the "I" to be placed at the beginning of the sentence: <My yw dha das!> Morvyl

We cannot go into schools armed with old miracle plays and Ecclesiastes in Kernewek, we won't see the kids for dust. I understand why the god-botherers amongst us wanted the Bible translated into Cornish, but now we need the people who put so much effort into that to turn to popular books & films that people will actually be interested to read/see in Cornish, so why not start with Star Wars, Lord of the Rings and Wuthering Heights and some locally-set or written books?

How about hosting an online poll where people suggest and vote for the next book to be translated by the community?

Flammnew wrote QuoteHow about hosting an online poll where people suggest and vote for the next book to be translated by the community? Good idea Flamm, I'd go initially for children's books so that there would be something to interest schools (alternatively the fabulous Orvil an Morvil series could be republished in an attractive glossy format).
