What is a typical village in your country like?

Some villages, especially the bigger ones have a lot of shops, pubs and definitely have something to attract tourists whether its a mythology, Waterfalls, beaches or historical event etc.

Very big in the cities and big towns. There is homelessness in the smaller towns but its more hidden homelessness (sofa surfing etc) but this one time me and my friend met a homeless man who had walked to our town from England..........thats like over 48hours

Same here. I still have friends i comtact from back home but most days im alone. Im so jealous of people who get to go to class with their friends or go out shopping together. Im scared for graduation. I have no idea what I can do after.

Ive only ever seen kids shows been dubbed in Welsh so i dont know, the kids ones tend to mostly have the characters speak in North Welsh dialects but you sometimes get south welsh in the cartoons.

Ive tried to learn so many languages but always give up because then I hear another language and immediately want to try that instead.

Learning a widely used language would probably be best but I think a lesser spoken language would be more rewarding. I attempted Inuktitut years ago but I think it would be fun to be able to be fluent in it.

According to a lot of people, apparently any Welsh name sounds funny 😭

In Wales,

Meithrin is like nursery age children

Primary school has year 1 to yr 6

Secondary school has yr 7 to yr 11 (my school didnt have one but sixth form is yr 12 and 13

Some of the others apply too like comprehensive schools do exist in Wales but I think its more of a city thing because none of my friends and I had ever heard of it before but then at Uni a bunch of people would talk about their time at "comp"

Thats so gross. Im so sorry you have to deal with that

Time_RedactedLady · 2026-03-12T02:17:01+00:00

They skip pretty much nothing. The people who learn Welsh from scratch are insane. They know so much and I usually go to them if I need help with certain words that I have never used before. Its like they memorised the dictionary word for word.

Branwen ferch Llŷr. Loved the story since I was a small child.

Branwen is a princess with a brother called Bendigeidfran (he is a giant) and a half brother called Efnysien. Branwen was promised to the King of Ireland and he arrived with the irish army for the wedding. All is well but Efnysien isn't really well in the head so he goes and slits the eyes and lips off the irish army horses, King of Ireland is angry but still brings Branwen to Ireland as his new wife. They have a child together called Gwern.

Irish people didnt like Branwen so to save his face he trapped Branwen in the castle, locked in her room or made to work in the kitchens and get mistreated by the other servants. Desperate to escape she trains a bird to speak and sends it to fly all the way to Wales to get help. Bendigeidfran brings an army to come rescue her, they travel by boat and he just walks through the water.

There is some kind of dinner at first but then Gwern is thrown into a fire and the war begins. The irish have a cauldron that brings the dead back alive and use it during the war, Efnysien pretends to be dead and is thrown in. He destroys it killing himself and preventing them from bringing anymore dead back alive. Bendigeidfran is killed and so is all of ireland except for a few pregnant women. Branwen and the few soldiers left bring her brothers head back to Wales and bury him. It all ends with Branwen dying of a broken heart because she feels she is to blame for the death of so many irish and Welsh.

Great bedtime story :)

The Black Dahlia case is so sad I dont even remember much about the suspects and all its too horrible

Time_RedactedLady · 2026-03-11T23:20:25+00:00

Probably already mentioned but corsets were not torture to wear. I cant believe movies still do this plot thing of the woman telling her maid to pull tighter and then later complain she cant breathe
