[QUOTE="Yale, post: 6550364, member: 19"] The Welsh language is the most divisive thing in Wales. As someone who understands quite a bit but doesn’t speak a great deal it is shocking how arrogant and rude a lot of Welsh speakers are. Attending an agricultural college nearby many years ago it confirmed my idea of the arrogance when Welsh speaking lecturers and staff would rattle on in Welsh to the students who spoke it leaving out the ones who could not understand. My wife speaks Welsh and we have made a conscious decision to educate our three children through the English medium as it gives them a better chance in further education. I want my children to be global citizens not petty minded ignorant souls who have hardly travelled beyond the Welsh border. [/QUOTE]
