Who transcribes Welsh content?
Welsh-language broadcasters and podcast producers, Welsh Government bodies and local councils meeting bilingual service requirements, and universities researching Welsh-medium education regularly transcribe Welsh audio. Oral history projects and legal proceedings in Wales, where Welsh may be spoken in court, also generate Welsh recordings.
Welsh dialects and accents
The main spoken split is between northern and southern Welsh, which differ in vowel pronunciation and everyday vocabulary (for example, llefrith versus llaeth for milk). Colloquial speech also diverges noticeably from formal literary Welsh, and a small Patagonian Welsh community survives in Argentina.
Where Welsh is spoken
Welsh is spoken in Wales, and by some in England, Argentina, Canada, and America.
