This is going to sound like a Askhistorians question. In the early 1960s Saunders Lewis made a speech on the fate of the Welsh language where he showed concern about the decline of the language which lead to the formation of Welsh Language Society which campaigned for equal status for Welsh. Prior to Saunders' speech and the campaigns of the Welsh Language Society, were there concerns about the decline of the language and campaigns to obtain equal status for the Welsh language or was there an attitude even amongst Welsh speakers the language was an outdated relic and English was the language of progress.
