Andy7 Singing to native speakers (30) Singing to native speakers 11 Jun 17


If I learn a song in, say, Welsh or Irish Gaelic, is it good form, or otherwise, to give the song an outing in front of native speakers, at a singaround in Wales or Ireland, for example?

If you were one of those native speakers, might you respect my attempt, be amused at my hubris, or be annoyed at my mangling of a song that everyone else present could have pronounced better?
