How do you pronounce that? Ar-gah or Agg-ah?

Arr-Guh.

Ah.

Kernowfolk pronounced it Agga, as in Daniel. Never understood that.

You're all half-Welsh down there in Cornwall aren't you?

The basic Brythonic heritage of the Cornish and Welsh is the same. We even share some words in the language, and most are fairly similar.

For example: the Welsh word for "language" itself, is "iaith" (pronounced yaith) - in Kernewek it's "yeth". Similarly, "Merry/Happy Christmas" in Cymraeg is "Nadolig Llawen" - in Kernewek, "Nadelek Lowen."

I think I'm in the wrong job. I should be an ethno-linguism-vexillologist. I'm fascinated by word origins and political sociology.

Ahem! Thames estuary at past midnight! Stop being so smart. My brain is hurting!

Apologies. Drinks can be had in the Mark Grindon thread. I'll get them in.

Lay off the weed. I can almost see your IQ diminishing...

Oooh Lexi, strange you should ask. I'm a little dry. A double Jd and coke please. And For Mark. He'll have a brow wax, and a Brandy to numb the pain.

You look like you haven't slept for a week!

Staying up all night drinking beer, downloading pornography and music isn't wise. However, I strongly recommend it!
