A lot of people feel that keeping the Welsh language alive in Wales is an important part of the country's history and culture.
It might feel a bit performative in places like Cardiff where Welsh-speakers are rare, but in other parts e.g. up in Gwynedd there's real hope of keeping a community going of first-language Welsh speakers, for the foreseeable future.
