The Story of a Brittany Girl, Solil De Groi
Malice was happy to visit her beloved ille de groi even more often. And she also loved that she could spend some with her friend, jose. During these conversations, jose revealed the real story of how broton had started to disappear during the twentieth century. Although people from brittany had embraced french as a means of escaping poverty and isolation, it hadn't always been voluntary. For many children in brittany, breton was the native language, but they were forbidden from speaking it at school. They had to learn french. To enforce this policy, the school teachers set up a system punish breton speakers through public shaming.
