I approve of this video. I was a bit nervous watching it thinking that you'd tell me I'd got it all wrong. I'm glad it met your approval and really interesting to get your perspective.
Gideon!! Thank you so much for your kind words. As an aspiring polyglot myself, I really enjoy your channel, and I appreciate the in-depth research you conducted to make the video on Celtic languages. Would love to collaborate sometime. Cheers!
Have you ever looked at any ConLang videos? I think constructing a Latin that was influenced by Welsh (no Gàidhlig gu dearbh!) would be a really fun experiment.
Another possible influence is phonetic, though it's harder to ascertain. English and British languages have similar cadence, tone, prosody, and phonetics. They sound shockingly similar on a sound-level. At a distance, English and Welsh or Gaelic can be confused for each other in a way that English and French or German cannot.
@@CarlsLingoKingdom I live in S America where it's easy to find people who don't know English too well but have some notion of it. I've played UA-cam videos of people speaking Gaelic or Welsh and the hispanophones think it's English. However, they don't make this mistake with German or French. It makes sense: languages in close even intimate contact for 1,500 years should be similar in some way.

It's been a while, but conlangs are fun! My wife even got me a conlang book but I ain't had time to read it yet.
Watch this next! Scottish Gaelic vs. Irish Gaelic 🇮🇪 REACTION: ua-cam.com/video/eQSUF4QLTVE/v-deo.html

That's super interesting! I'd not thought of that aspect. Why do you think that it?

Hello ! I am from Japan. Thank you for the Japanese flag! I am interested in the linguistics, especially in the indigenous language, Ainu, in Japan.
よこそ！アイヌ語は面白いですね

"Scottish Gaelic speaker", is dócha go bhfuil tú ag feabhsú go mór mar sin?
Tha mi a' feuchainn! Beag air bheag.
@@CarlsLingoKingdom Maith thú a Charl! Táim an-bhródúil asat! Agus táim sásta gur thuigeas an abairt sin!
Sometimes I can get bits of the Irish, sometimes I need help lol
@@CarlsLingoKingdom Ná bí buartha. Same story on the other side of the Atlantic with the Irish and Scottish Gaelic speakers 😂
@@internetual7350 Were your raised speaking Irish, or did you first learn it in school?
