What are the cultural values of the Welsh?

Question

Hi all,

I realize that I have been pretty quiet for a while but I have been swamped with school work as I finish my senior year of my undergraduate studies! Less than 3 months until graduation!

 At any rate, I have a paper due in a couple of weeks on the cultural values of a country of my choice and I chose Wales. I chose it because my dad always says that we are Welsh but I have not yet found it in my research so I figured why not give it a shot! I have a few books about the country on the way including Lonely Planet's travel guide but I wanted to see if any of you might be able to give me any insight or better resources whether online or in print.

 

Thank you,

Mike

Hi Mike

I'm Welsh but a non Welsh speaker.

As a country the north is still very Welsh - eg most aeas Welsh is their first language.

South - where I live it's very 'British'.  Even the accents or pronounciation of words between different areas can have their own dialect.
