Welsh is a Celtic member of the Proto-Indo-European language family spoken by over 20% of the population of Wales. Welsh is closely related to Cornish, known as Kernowek, Kernewek and Curnoack. The Welsh language subcategory is focused on the language itself - grammar and history. This category does not offer dictionaries. Rather, the user can use the @link to find Welsh dictionaries and/or language programs.
