Desky Kernowek - Deskas Trei (Lesson 3) It's a longish one with a number of repetitions, but also quite a bit of new stuff. You can take it in several sessions or go through it a few times. The main thing is that you actively participate and translate the English sentences given, before the speaker says them, then when said in Cornish by the speaker, repeat them again. Have fun wherever your learning Cornish! Whether you are listening to them on your smartphone on the way to work, or relaxing with a coup of tea in the afternoon. Gwary teg 'bo dhewgh! - Have fun!
