Criteria for Indigenous Welsh status
03/22/13 10:44:19PM, by Anumpeshi Aduddell
I and my husband would like to determine if there is any interest among any of the Americymru members appertaining to developing a standard or set of criteria for recognition of Y Cymru or the Welsh people as an indigenous people. Although we are just beginning to explore our Welsh heritage we noticed that no such procedure exists although it would appear from our limited research that it should. The reasons are as follows:1) The Welsh originate historically from a Brythonic or pre-Brythonic...

Started by gaabi on Oct. 1st, 2009 at 12:55 pm in Three Word Story Group The Welsh Chef prepared his best. Searching for ingredients he left home, spoon in hand, and fell into loutish cooking ways. Mixing cockles with mussels alive alive o. Steaming his whelks with some baralawr and laver bread (to be sure it was sweetened). Alas, for him, it made him fond of beans all the more. Beans on toast ...... with Welsh lamb! Flatulence soon followed and intense gurgling sent Llinos running...

At 14, David Thompson apprenticed (and indentured) himself to the Hudson's Bay company and in 1784, sailed for Canada. At the end of his indenture he requested, and was granted, a set of surveying tools and set off to become the most prolific land geographer in history. Thompson explored and surveyed more than 3 million square kilometers of North America. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Thompson_ (explorer) http://www.thefurtrapper.com/david_thompson.htm
teaching your children Welsh in the states..
07/22/08 01:51:30AM, by Dafydd Owain Hughes
..are there any other Welsh speakers out there, who have married a non-Welsh speaker and have children born here that they have a hard time teaching 'yr Iaith'.? My wife was born in northern Ireland to American parents; she would love for me to teach them Welsh, but I find it difficult in my every day schedule to do it. They know some basic phrases, but I feel like they will never have even a basic grasp of the language...being from Ynys Mon I would love it if they could retain some aspect of...

The Welsh Snow/Sand Castle Contest

With half the country under snow, we thought it would be fun to throw down the gauntlet in a photo contest challenge to who can create the best snow or sand castle (depending on your latitude) . The rules are pretty simple, make a castle/fort looking thing out of snow or sand, stick a Welsh flag on the top of it, take a picture and post it on this forum . If anyone fancies taking up the position of adjudicating the contest in exchange for offering a prize to the winner it would be...

05/04/16 04:59:46PM, by David Western
I'm interested in hearing from Welsh and non-Welsh alike to learn what, in your opinion, constitutes a good Welsh love -spoon. What do you believe are the features which must be present for it to be a lovespoon and do you feel the lovespoon tradition is one worth keeping?
