English-Cornish Climate Phrasebook

The Cornish language, Kernewek, is a recognised minority Celtic language, and championing its use as part of Cornish culture is a key part of Cornwall’s Creative Manifesto.

Those of us living and working in this beautiful part of the world have an opportunity — and perhaps even a responsibility — to help keep both Kernewek and the planet thriving for future generations.

With support from the Cornish Language Team, we’ve created an English–Cornish Climate Phrasebook featuring commonly used terms for climate-related topics.

Visit the UNDP Climate Dictionary to learn more and find definitions of the featured terms.

This phrasebook is part of the Sustainability Action Plan for Cornwall's Creative and Cultural Community.
