Interested in learning Cornish language and culture
I'm interested in learning Cornish after I become fluent in Welsh. I've been studying Welsh for a few months now. I think the knowledge of Welsh will help with studying Cornish. It's probably not a good idea to study both at the same time, so I'll get round to this when I feel more established in the other. But I can start learning about Cornwall (and Devon) and the culture right away, so I'm here to say I'm a Cornovii/Dumnonii descendant who wants to learn about her heritage and connect with others with similar interest.

Re: Interested in learning Cornish language and culture
Have you seen Say Something in Cornish? https://www.saysomethingin.com/cornish
And if you haven't seen their Welsh courses, they're worth checking out.
I think you can start learning another language before you're fluent in Welsh. My Welsh is still nowhere near fluent, but now I have started learning Manx and I don't think it has harmed my learning of either language.

Re: Interested in learning Cornish language and culture
I do have that link saved, thanks, and was planning to go there first when it's time.
I'm using DuoLingo for learning Welsh, and the "Welcome to Welsh" book with CD that I got for taking AmeriCymru's Welsh course. I may dabble in the Cornish a bit and see if it becomes confusing.
How long have you been learning Welsh and Manx?

Re: Interested in learning Cornish language and culture
I've been learning Welsh on and off for maybe five or six years. Manx I only started a few months ago.
