TRANSCRIPT

Page 1: Six Celtic Languages

(Irish)

Tír gan teanga, tír gan anam.

A country without a language is a country without a soul.

(Scots Gaelic)

Am fear a chailleas a chanain caillidh e a shaoghal.

He who loses his language loses his world.

(Welsh) Cenedl heb iaith, cenedl heb galon. A nation without a language, a nation without a heart.

(Cornish)

Peden bras, vidne whee bis cregas!

Never credit me but I will spout some Cornish at him!

(Manx)

Cheer gyn çhengey, çheer gyn ennym.

A country without a language, a country without an identity.

(Breton)

Hep brezhoneg, breizh ebet. Without Breton there is no Brittany.
