Dyth da! Hello! 

As part of Speak Cornish Week we thought we would share a handful of  gig names that have Cornish language meanings.

Sowenna – Success

Morvoren – Mermaid

Morlader – Pirate

Kensa – First

Govenek – Hope

Mark Trevethan, Culture Lead for Cornwall Council met with members of the staff team this week. He said,

“It’s lovely seeing Cornish language in the gig names and the beauty of the language being celebrated on the water.”
