I send Welsh-language birthday cards to our English family as if that's the <i>only</i> language there is here. :) If the perception is that the language is alive and well (which i believe it is!!) then it is more likely to continue so.

Cenarth, meanwhile, which following the demise of Capel Iwan school is part of Ysgol y Ddwylan's catchment sustained a decline of 8.8%.<br /><br />Fully 49.5% of Cenarth parish residents were born outside Wales (up from 44.5% in 2001).

If its feeder schools are mainly Welsh medium, does that mean they change language when they move up to secondary level? No wonder the language is being systematically murdered in its former heartlands.
