A seasonal thread and because I follow Rugby:
Irish (Gaeilge) - RugbaĂ;
Scottish Gaelic (GĂ idhlig) - Rugbaidh;
Welsh (Cymraeg) - Rygbi;
I do not know the Cornish (Kernewek/Kernowek), Breton, Galician or Manx words: can anyone fill them in?
Can someone please explain to me what is diffrence between bhoys and GB. Do they chant together, on away matches are they together, which ones are better fans, does both support palestine or they preferre christianity?
Today, NAC released the official music video for their latest song "Dullahan," inspired by Irish folklore. The track, staying true to their Celtic rock style, delves into a mystical and dark atmosphere, perfectly reflected in the visuals.
The video features striking imagery, including a majestic horse and a mysterious figure dressed in a large red hooded cape. These visual elements enhance the connection to the Dullahan myth, the headless horseman, while adding a deep narrative to the video.
Do you think this video symbolizes a new artistic direction for NAC, or is it simply a tribute to their Celtic influences? What elements of the video — whether it's the horse, the mysterious figure, or the overall ambiance — stood out to you the most?

I have been talking with a few people about my excitement for a new Gallaecian conlang, currently being developed by its creator, because I would like to use it for a few artistic projects.
However, besides the "Why use a language that doesn't exist?" and "It is a waste of time" (which I disagree in the sense that I do not believe that hobbies have to make us earn money, this is literally for personal enjoyment), I also have heard some statements such as:
Is there any truth to these claims? I thought that Gallaecian was included in the Hispano-Celtic from the Continental branch.
I was also told that if I were to use that conlang in projects - even if I refer and stress that the language is a reconstruction of a supposed Gallaecian language had it been Celtic - that I am harming historical accuracy and these comments have left me a little disheartned...
What do you think about that? Should I give up on this?
Edit: Correction on the expression "Waste of Time"
I've been doing some research into surviving common Brythonic Words that we still see in town names/rivers and everyday vocab. Does anyone have some interesting examples of common Brythonic Words?
