    Default Out of all the celtic languages which would you learn/which sounds best?

    If you'd like pick one modern & one dead. Here's a list of all celtic languages living and dead.

    Proto-Celtic (reconstructed)
    -Lepontic (earliest written P-celtic language)
    -Gallo-brythonic (reconstructed)
    --Cisalpine Gaulish
    --Tansalpine Gaulish (early, middle, and late forms)
    ---Galatian (east-Gaulish in turkey)
    -Proto-Brythonic (early stage like Gaulish, late stage like old welsh)
    --Old welsh
    ---middle welsh (language of the Mabinogi)
    ----modern welsh
    --Cumbric
    --South-west Brythonic
    ---old Cornish
    ----Cornish
    ---old Breton
    -----Breton
    -Hispano-Celtic
    --Celtiberian (q-celtic, and conservative in nature, preserves proto-celtic diphthong ei)
    --Gallaecian (in modern Galicia)
    --Tartessian (possibly earliest written Celtic language)
    -Primitive Irish (early, and late stages) (mostly reconstructed, some Ogham examples found)
    --old Irish
    ---middle Irish
    ----Irish Gaelic
    ----Scottish Gaelic
    ----Manx Gaelic

    In this playlist ignore Gallaecian, as I believe they are mistaken, and used modern, italic gallaecian rather than the old celtic one

    Out of all Celtic languages I've heard, Welsh is my favorite, although they all sound very beautiful to me.

    Not really, this is a Celtic language, but the Gallaecian spoken in this video is a reconstruction. I see a lot of Gaelicisms, probably used to 'fill in' the blank spots due to our severe lack of written records of actual Gallaecian. Most of what we know about the language comes from personal names, divinity names and toponymics so hardly 'reconstructible'.

    Proto-Celtic sounds the most clear to me.


    I wonder what do you think about this?

    As would I, maybe they’ll find more and be able to reconstruct it
