Why do Scots, Irish, Welsh and Cornish insist on speaking their "own" languages as well as English?
Celtic nationalism. But Scots, Welsh, Cornish and Irish people are not Celts, this has been proven with genetics and lack of archaeological evidence (no suggestion of a mass invasion of Celts).
These people have rich cultures and rich history. They want to revive their archaic languages because English is seen as the language of people who invaded them in the past.
First of all, Lowland Scots spoke a form of English through their relations with Northern England. Highland Scots spoke Scottish until the 18th century.
Secondly, the Celtic languages are also languages of invaders.
So what is the point? just stick with English, which should really be called British because the modern English language evolved through out the British isles.
No their languages died out, now they are trying to revive them.
Is that tradition? don't think so.
The Gaelic languages of the British isles are slightly different to eachother, that is why I say Scottish, Irish, Welsh and Cornish.
NO they are not descendant from Celts. As I said in the question genetic studies and archaeological evidence shows they are not celts... NOT CELTS
