About the language
A few hundred fluent speakers and growing, with several thousand learners, concentrated in Cornwall.
Cornish (Kernewek) is a Brythonic Celtic language, closely related to Welsh and Breton. It ceased to be spoken as a community language in the late 18th century and was revived in the 20th century from written records, literature, and place names.
Cornish uses initial consonant mutation and verb-first word order like its Brythonic cousins. Modern written Cornish follows the Standard Written Form agreed in 2008, which the course uses throughout.
