My interest in the Cornish language dates from 1960. It has two  basic 
motivations:
 
1: Ancestral. I have Cornish ancestors on the male side, and  have relatives 
descended from Cornishmen.
 
2: A lifelong amateur interest in language.I w given, and devoured - a  copy 
of Frederick Bodmer's Loom of Language when I was 11 years old.
 
Apart from these, I am a bit of a fuss-pot about things being done right  
(that's my Cornish grandfather), and getting the spelling of our language as  
near dight as possible is a matter of great interest to me.
