It's an interesting tale. It mentions that he'd been speaking with the cashier in Welsh before she(?) gave the price in English. I'm gonna guess that she was a Welsh L2 speaker, maybe slipping back to English when she had to do math.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If that's actually the case, then did Lewis do the right thing? I agree he has the "right" to conduct his business in Wales in Welsh, but is this the way to encourage L2 speakers?</div>
