Why is it not W4C then?

[manker]

Why is it not W4C then?:lol:

In Welsh, Wales is Cymru (that's the 'C'), the S stands for Sbectel - not sure what that means :unsure:

[Rat Faced]

You're certainly not getting any work done. :P

Since when do Estate Agents work? :huh:

[Rat Faced]

Shhhh, i have enough trouble justifying my job... :unsure:

[manker]

Isn't Sbectel the S4C version of teletext. With the S in S4C standing for Sianal. Or is that just pysh.I'll defer to you because I've no idea what it means if it isn't Sbectel but thinking about it, the Welsh teletext is called Sbectel :blushing:

I would look that up to find out what it means but since you used the gay eye rolling smiley I'm presuming that it's cyberage related :rolleyes:

[Rat Faced]

It means "Foolish Welshman"... :blink:

Exactly what type of Welshman are you, not to know your own language? :P

[manker]

Sianel Pedwar Cymru, methinks.

I pwn you on t'knowledge of Welsh television channels. Feel my power.That sounds a bit naughty http://moderation.forumflash.com/style_emoticons/default/kenneth.gif

Yes, I'm teh pwned on Welsh TV but one of your posts today contained an abuse of the possessive apostrophe - I win :01:

[manker]

Exactly what type of Welshman are you, not to know your own language? :PThe type that refused to sit in the classes that taught it at school because I thought it was pointless. I really regret that now :ermm:

You should have thought yourself lucky to get taught it at school.

Unless we grow up with some old git, the only way we can learn the real Geordie dialect/language is through a University Course :(

Expecting teenagers to be grateful for having the opportunity to learn an obscure dialect is going a bit far, dontcha think ;)

The girls from the Welsh School taught us swear words, which came in handy. That is the only practical use I can think of - unless you're a bit of a romantic, which I'm not.
