I've been there lots of times. It's a beautiful country, with a huge variety of terrains. Snowdonia in the nort is well worth a visit, and the ruins of Tintern Abbey (which Wordsworth wrote about) is great, & easy to get to from Bristol, England.

What is the English identity? Is it the same as it was a generation ago? A century ago? Surely a nation's character is in a continual state of flux and evolution? I don't think there is anything to worry about, this is business as usual for a healthy country.

English IS a nationality, it comes from the ancient tribe called the Angles.\n\nall you Scots/Welsh etc, will have no nationality soon either, unless we are aware we will all become regions of Europe with no national identity to speak of.\n\nI always write ENGLISH on the 'other nationality' section of forms like that, thats the simple answer to your question

It's not racist, but I can see it must be frustrating.  You can see where they're coming form, they want to preserve their culture, but this can result in some people being overly aggressive towards non-welsh speakers.  My friend went on holiday in North Wales once and said a shopkeeper refused to serve her becuase she didn't speak Welsh!\n\nDoes it have, have, have to be North Wales you move to?  I'm moving to Cardiff next year, they don't seem to ahve those attitudes there at all.

I'm Irish and lived in NL for six years, and it was a great experience - people thought that Irish had some odd customs, like having a party when someone dies, it's called a 'wake' ... likewise I thought the Dutch had some funny ways, but most of the time I enjoyed our differences.\n\nHow odd that your friends find you being proud of your native culture to be 'uncomfortable'. What's wrong with that? What's wrong with THEM?

SO MUCH  is lost in translation, however much ppl wana deny that, well i guess they can GO INTO denial but it does not alter the fact that so many words are different/ have more meanings in other languages... as you say\n\neg i am welsh, ok and one of the 1st prayer i learnt was 'Ysbryd Glan' -- it can translate as 'Pure Spirit' BUT also ''Clean Ghost' and for years when i was a kid, i was afraid of the 'Clean Ghost'\n\n'Hiraeth' is a welsh word, it takes a whole sentence to get the concept across in english - it is much more than home-sickness, it is a yearning... etc etc\n\nSo, ye, even tho the Bible says than anyone who translates it wrong will be punished ------- they HAVE translated it wrong ........ who knows if they were punished or not? Personally, I believe if it was a genuine mistake, they were forgiven... but that is a matter of FAITH

I vote for emphatic British English , by FAR the most beautiful in my ears.  I just love the rhythm & cadence & intonation of strong British erudite English.  The formalism of it.is so charming.\ncoming in second place to me is the High-German language.   so forceful & direct & powerful.  Makes anything you say sound like a command.  German is a no-nonsense language ideal for military & discipline & command.  and I like that.  \n\nI find the Romance languages boring.  I am not interested in the so-called Mediterranean culture.  I was raised in so-called Eastern mediterranean culture & I didn't care for it.  \n\nI also am charmed by the sounds of Swedish,& Norwegian - also very partial to the sounds of Korean& japanese.& Russian.  I love the cadence & the way they resonate.   And I also am fascinated by the sound of the Greek language in songs & speeches.\n\nI'm sick &tired of hearing how great French & italian are.  I want to differ sharply from this.

Australian men are HOT!  :) Seriously, my family hosted a few Australian exchange students and they are the nicest people.  :) Funny, cute and super charming.  I've seen lots of photos and tv shows on Australia~ it looks like the most beautiful country.  But I really think the people are what makes it so neat.  :)And hey, that accent is just kickin.  ;)

I think that Scotland and Wales both have their own identity and language and there are probably separatist movements.  Northern Ireland should be returned to Ireland IMHO.

between what?  Castellano vs Espanol (The Spain variety vs everything else)?  All Hispanic countries in general?  Over time?  You need to specify

I think Spanglish is just fine.  Most of the time, the opinions that people have about dialects are a reflection of their opinion about the people who use that dialect.  In other words, if people you know think that Spanglish is bad, it might mean that they really think the people who use Spanglish are low-class.
