Description: Collection of links to sites dealing with Cornwall, its culture and the Cornish language, from a language portal.
The Cornish language (in Cornish: Kernowek, Kernewek, Curnoack) is one of the Brythonic group of Celtic languages that includes Welsh, Breton, the extinct Cumbric and perhaps the hypothetical Ivernic. The Celtic languages of Scottish Gaelic, Irish and Manx are part of the separate Goidelic group. Cornish shares about 80% basic vocabulary with Breton, 75% with Welsh, 35% with Irish, and 35% with Scottish Gaelic. By comparison, Welsh shares about 70% with Breton. The language died out in the late 18th century, and was revived in the 20th century. Currently around 3,500 speak Cornish to a basic conversational level, and 300-400 fluently.
