Lingvo de Ĉampionoj


...de la Shaghai Daily:

Well, I think after the second World War, there was a decrease in the use of the Welsh language, as people decided it wasn't a winner, people back winners, I think there was a sense that the Welsh language was the language of working classes, and if people want to better themselves, then they need to speak English.

I think that has changed.
I think the fact so much more work has been done by the media and areas in Wales that the Welsh language now seems like a language for winners, so I think people began to realize they should speak the language because the language is for winners.

It's very pleasing, of course...
