i've read some time ago that only 4.93 % of welsh people speak welsh, and i know it's the same in Ireland and Scottland with gaelic and in France with breton, provençal. i know they should also speak english and french because is the official language, but I think they(irish, scottish, welsh) should learn how to speak these languages fluently, after all....is part of their culture!

I ask this because in Spain we have other languages appart from Spanish(galician, catalan, basque) but they all(or at least, most of them)can speak, read, write them in Galiza, Catalunya and Basque Country.

thank you for the answers! it would be nice to have any answer from irish, scottish, welsh people.

sorry for the spelling, I don't know if I wrote it all propperly!
