RIP Vercingetorix

r/Gaulish

This sub is for learning the now Gaulish, a dead language. This had many different dialects in its heyday, as there were many different tribes of Gauls. However, much of the language is dead now, and lost, so much of the "Gaulish" we learn will be modern reconstruction and addition to fill in the gaps. This was the language of Vercingetorix, a hero of the ancient French people. If you want to learn this language, please subscribe. There will also be cultural information to go along with this.

Rules:

Be respectful of others.
We are learning Gaulish, but for the sake of newcomers who don't know any Gaulish and are just beginning to learn, please make sure to speak in English.
We welcome cultural resources just as much as language resources.
Since much of Gaulish is dead now, if you see a gap somewhere, or you want to create a new phrase, you can create a post discussing that. The Gaulish we learn won't be entirely authentic, after all. However, do at least try to make it sound like Gaulish. We're learning Gaulish here, not Chinese.
Learn, learn, learn!
