Wait until they hear about the countries and people of Montenegro… or Niger… or Nigeria. I count myself as an honorary Welsh person. Nice harmless word - until you look into it and discover that it is at best a bad term. Should I go to war against anyone that uses the verb “welch” for all the negative connotations it has for my adopted people?
I still hear people using that term, but as "Welch on". I guess it's their evolution of "Indian giver". 😬 Not joking, unfortunately.
Do you mean Indigenous American Giver? Lol. Honestly, I’ve never encountered that phrase before so I looked it up. It’s probably even more problematic than the whole Welsh thing I was ranting about.
