Learn Cornish — Online Courses

Although Cornish is no longer a widely spoken language, our courses aim to allow students to travel back in time and gain an appreciation for this beautiful language. Cornish was once the native language of Cornwall but is now spoken by just over 3,000 people worldwide at intermediate level.

At City Lit, we offer a range of Cornish language lessons at various levels. These courses are ideal if you're looking to take on a new challenge or you want to make a start on your language journey.
