Y Fro Gymraeg


Definition: Y Fro Gymraeg (literally 'The Welsh Language Area', pronounced [ə vroː ɡəmˈrɑːɨɡ]) is a name often used to refer to the linguistic area in Wales where the Welsh language is used by the majority or a large part of the population; it is the heartland of the Welsh language and comparable in that respect to theGàidhealtachd of Scotland and Gaeltacht of Ireland. However, unlike its equivalent in Ireland, Y Fro Gymraeg does not at present have official government recognition.


Here's a campaign my Cymuned, the Welsh communities pressure group, to make Y Fro Gymraeg an official region akin to the Gaeltacht of Ireland.
PLEASE SUPPORT THE CAMPAIGN! Thank you
