If
you were born Welsh or are of Welsh descent then there is something to
celebrate (or comemmorate) on every day of the year. If you are looking
to learn Welsh history one day at a time or just looking for an excuse
to raise a glass and celebrate on any particular day this blog is for
you. You will also find the birthdates of many famous Americans of Welsh
descent. Though these pages are intended as a serious resource some of
our contributors have a sense of humor. Consequently there are a few
'joke' items spread amongst the vast bulk of factual daily entries. We
dont think you'll have too much trouble spotting them. To navigate to
any date in the calendar please use the rollover menu or the search box
above. This will take you to the monthly calendar pages or to individual
entries. You might also wish to check out our list of some of the most
important dates in the Welsh Calendar which can be found here

When I was eleven years old starting English lessons in the local grammar school, the first bit of advice offered to us by our new teacher was to buy the 'Pocket Oxford Dictionary' which he thought would be an invaluable aid. My advice to you Welsh learners, if it is possible, is to get hold of a brilliant little dictionary entitled 'Y Geiriadur Bach' published by Christopher Davies (Publishers) limited, Llandybie, Dyfed. I've carried it around with me over the years as it fits easily into the pocket and is a Welsh/Welsh as well as a Welsh/English - English/Welsh dictionary.
