But it has brought out a concern (indeed, a social fear) all my own: I have this quite overactive dread of mispronouncing foreign words, names and places. (Is there a word for this anxiety?)
And Welsh...well, lets just say I don't know where to begin:
Genir pawb yn rhydd ac yn gydradd â'i gilydd mewn urddas a hawliau. Fe'u cynysgaeddir â rheswm a chydwybod, a dylai pawb ymddwyn y naill at y llall mewn ysbryd cymodlon.
This is the opening text to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
I believe.
I assume, though, that English of some variety will be spoken by the natives. And that they are, at least in large measure, friendly.
