Our physical proximity to France is a co-incidence.
I think people should know something of their neighbours' language(s),
to find out something about the culture. Having their TV channels
would be a start, something that Belgium and the Netherlands learned.
I suppose cable helped there.

No, really we shouldn't.

No-one should have to suffer Welsh language broadcasting.


That's a bit narrow-minded.... no, absolutely pig-headed.

I would be imaginatively surprised should you prove that you do not
have access to/service from public broadcasting (let alone commercial)
outlets in Your Language.

So why would you be 'forced' to tune/view programming in Welsh?

Your choice is to ignore it.


I didn't have that choice when I was made to learn Welsh at school.


But your original comment was, "No-one should have to suffer Welsh
language BROADCASTING." No mention of schooling in that comment that
I can ascertain.

Lurning (deliberate) another language, or even being exposed to other
languages, 'should' enhance how you appreciate/understand your native
tongue.

It really is interesting, and most of all, fun... as in "meeting
people".
