Parental Attitudes towards the Welsh Language.
Lyon, Jean; Ellis, Nick
Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, v12 n4 p239-51 1991
As legislation has attempted to facilitate the use of Welsh, opinions about the language were examined among parents from differing English/Welsh backgrounds. An overall favorable attitude toward Welsh was found in all groups, most likely a result of attitudes toward Welsh identity, better communication, and enhanced employment prospects.
