More should be done to welcome learners to Welsh-speaking communities, according to one Welsh professor. In a special radio series on BBC Radio Cymru, Professor Nathan Abrams, who is a lecturer at Bangor University and lives in the Gwynedd city, revealed that he felt like an "outsider" despite learning Welsh.
BBC's podcast, Cymry a Mwy, which translates to 'Welsh and More' and is presented by journalist Gwenfair Griffith, explores the challenges of feeling different, celebrating cultures and a sense of belonging. In the programme, Gwenfair met up with families who were trying to keep their traditions and cultures alive in Wales, including Nathan and his family.
During Sunday's episode, Nathan, who is originally from London, explained how he tried to teach his two children - Isabel, 10, and Jacob, seven, the importance of their Jewish heritage. He also explained his reasons for learning Welsh after he moved to Bangor 16 years ago.
