It would certainly be appreciated by the Welsh, I’m sure, to know something of their language. Very good PR. I know language isn’t everyone’s forte- certainly not mine- but a little bit of knowledge would be good imo.

I agree he doesn't need to become proficient but about 25% of the population are fluent in Welsh with another 15% having some Welsh so it's a significant language. As it's a compulsory subject for all state educated children in Wales, I think the Prince and Princess of Wales should definitely have a basic knowledge of it (and not murder the pronunciation!).
