Aran Jones is the founder of Say Something with a special interest in accelerated learning, particularly with regards to languages. The Welsh language is one of the treasures of Wales. It is part of what defines it's inhabitants and as a nation. Welsh Government’s ambition is to see the number of people able to enjoy speaking and using Welsh reach 1 million by 2050. This is certainly a challenging ambition, but a challenge the Welsh Government believes is worthwhile and necessary to secure the vitality of the language for future generations. In this podcast episode, host Sally Holland speaks with Aran Jones as he shares his own experience of learning the Welsh language and his speciality, accelerated language learning, particularly in the context of minority languages.
