At home I can become lazy and if a Welsh word is really long, I just replace it with English.

Welsh is my mother tongue, and my children speak it. If you come and live in this community you'll work out pretty quickly that it's beneficial to learn the language, because if you're going to the pub or a cafe you need to be a part of the local life.
All my friends are Welsh, I speak Welsh, and I feel very Welsh.
I regret not paying a bit more attention to Welsh lessons at school. My Welsh is pretty ropey, as back at my school, people didn't take Welsh lessons seriously. My dad can speak it, so I wish he'd taught me some growing up.
Everyone I know is fervently proud to be Welsh but you try not to be preachy about it. It's difficult at times. But when I go home to north Wales, or to somewhere I've never been in south Wales, I still feel at home because I'm in Wales. It's hard to explain.
But it is my happiness to be half Welsh, and that the better half.
We're sometimes treated like the stupid cousin, so I'm always drawn to characters that make you feel good about being Welsh.
I'm a proud Welshman.
I'm a passionate Welshman. I have a culinary relationship with language: I taste what I say because I have two languages, and each informs the other.
Some words, you know, it's amazing but some words would come only in French, and when I speak French, it would only come in English. And so the adjustment is very difficult sometimes.
My parents were always Welsh-speaking and very proud of Wales.
