geniHi allEveryone so far has agreed that the ability to Speak Gaelic would be desirable (rather than undesirable !) Can we therefore amend the advert to this effect?Nope. The ability to read abbreviated medieval latin (I was in Lincoln the other day) would be desirable however its not going to be put into the advert.
Secondly, I've created a draft Welsh Language Policy for your comments here:Let's be positive about this please. If you have negative feelings towards minority languages, for any reasons, can I suggest you swallow hard, count to ten and drink up your glass of milk.Err provides way to much of an official role for english (for example if we were to produce leaflets for the National Eisteddfod of Wales it would be unreasonable to require that be translated into english) and discriminates against Poles.
