    Welsh is spoken across the world. There is a significant community of Welsh speakers in Argentina, many of which don’t speak any English.

    Language is much more than history. It is also deeply connected to culture and identity. Once it’s gone, it’s gone forever.

    I don’t think your intentions are bad, but this attitude leads to cultural destruction (when applied in scale). Cultural destruction is serious evil, those that carry it out often use misdirections like it’s just not practical.

      Good thing it’s not on either me nor a company to preserve that culture then!

      The Welsh are free to whatever they please to preserve their culture and language. And Duolingo is free to not help if they don’t want to.
