Are lost languages coming back to Britain? We hope so! Heres a little guide to some of our lesser-known indigenous languages, with phrases so that you can brush up on your Manx, Cornish and Jèrriais. Want to order a cream tea in Cornish this summer? Easy: My a garsa erghi te dehen kernewek. Tell someone you love them in Guernaisiais? Just say, Jtoïmerai à jaumais. Its quite like French, but fewer than 500 people can speak it! Or go forth and speak Manx! Ta mee goll seose as goaill jeh medd. Its bound to come in handy in this cold weather. Any of you or your families speak an endangered language? Wed love to hear about it if so!
