Brezhoneg !

BRETON!

 

---"Speak Breton to my babies?

Well yes, probably! Shoot! I'm not crazy!"

---"Fiddle! ... So speak to them in pidgin French.

To me it doesn"t matter. It's for you to judge.

Let's wait..."

 

The wait has not been long.

The children quickly tired

Of the taunts from peers

About their boorish French,

Now they reproach Angrily their mothers

For having been denied

The Language of their Country.
