			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today&#8217;s task is to learn some of the basics of Welsh. My parents are both half Welsh, grandfathers were Welsh, I currently live in Wales &#8211; so it would seem appropriate to learn the language; even more so, now that I&#8217;ve discovered pre-adoptive family members who speak it!</p>
<p>I guess I really need to go for lessons, as pronunciation is always the killer. I had a Spanish (Columbian actually) teacher at work, who was superb &#8211; you get to hear how to pronounce words, even if it was with a South American twist.</p>
<p>So &#8211; nouns, adjectives, prepositions, soft-mutations, aspirated-mutations (??!!) and so on &#8211; <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/learnwelsh" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.bbc.co.uk/wales/learnwelsh?referer=');">hello</a>.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s also two years since I <a href="http://www.simond.net/2007/02/04/football/">first started</a> this blog. Hmm, how things have changed.</p>
