I keep thinking about this article and just saw that Wales is pushing to have a million welsh speakers by 2050. This should be a celebrated goal, yet there are people that are outraged. Since this means that welsh will be the primary language in primary schools. People are Saying that it will “isolate the welsh by stunting their access to success”. And it occurred to me that is also takes just a generation to lose language.

Why was it written to read like a sermon?

Was she the only captive?
NO! She was captured with 22 other people.

Yes. She name drops throughout the narrative.
