Maybe you have some good info about it. At the end, even at the global era, with intenet and so, distance is still a problem. And writing about Cornish sitting in Catalonia it's not so easy.

Also, Cornish did not quite die out (and Dolly Pentreath was a long way from being the last native speaker. That myth is a constant vexation). The remoter western parishes contained several Cornish speaking families throughout the 19th century, and at least two native speakers lived into the early years of the 20th century. One of these, Richard Mann of St Just, but formerly of Zennor, was still alive, aged 80 in 1914, well after the revival had got under way.

It's really difficult. I just can say some few polite sentences. But finno-ugric family is very interesting. And Celtic one, just seeing what they were around year 0AD, it was an big and diverse family. But also Basque (and Aquitanian) is a very interesting mistery...Roger Fernàndez Escudéhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02390915158671542340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043477656640326607.post-86922381341288975792017-01-19T15:26:45.238+01:002017-01-19T15:26:45.238+01:00I have immerse respect and admiration for the celt...I have immerse respect and admiration for the celtic and finno-ugric languages.......... for some reason.Mister Twisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13370771651539304037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043477656640326607.post-77487075621332281302016-12-31T00:10:45.767+01:002016-12-31T00:10:45.767+01:00Simply brilliant ...
