up with their friends.

We've recorded one of Nelson Mandela's famous quotes so that you can hear what our minority languages sound like.
In English, the quote is:
"If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart."
And here are our versions:
Welsh
Gaelic
German-Italian
Finland-Swedish
Romansch
Kashubian
