It's been exactly a year since I moved to Cardiff from Southampton. As I'd hoped, Cardiff has proved to be a great city to live and work in. I feel so at home now I'm even thinking of starting Welsh lessons. But Welsh wasn't the only language besides English I've spotted in Cardiff. I've also been surprised at how often I've seen another European language while wandering around the city: namely, German. So I thought it would be fun to mark the occasion with a special blog post celebrating the traces of the German language to be found in Cardiff.
You can slide through the images above to see some of the German(ish) names and places I've spotted in Cardiff. In addition, there's also a friendly German conversation group that meets regularly. And I'm sure there's much more besides that I've missed! You can find some more detailed information at the Germanic Cardiff blog.
