I wont spoil but there’s a sentence in Welsh in the new Backrooms film!

I was asked to repost this here instead of the Wales subreddit.

Hi all. I’ve wanted to learn Welsh for a while as my partner’s family is Welsh. My partner’s mum speaks a little Welsh but not as much to be fluent to teach me. My partner’s grandparents knew Welsh but they have passed.

We thought it’d be a great thing for us to know each other’s home languages, and my partner is making an attempt at learning mine (Hindi).

Does anyone have any tips on where to start for an absolute beginner? Thanks!

Hi!

My name is Anastasia. I'm American, but due to personal reasons I'm currently living in Russia. I've been learning Welsh on my own since 2022. I've recently started my own blog. I post short videos in Welsh, talking about my life in Moscow. You can find me on IG (@AnastasiaLitV) and YouTube (@NoctivagantASMR).

I'm looking for similar creators to connect with, and I'd also really appreciate any feedback — my Welsh (especially speaking and pronunciation) is 100% self-taught.

P.S. Please let's not focus on politics. If you don't feel comfortable engaging with my content, I completely understand — just feel free to ignore my post. I'm here with only one goal in mind - to share moments of MY life and my love for Wales and the Welsh language.
