Jowan Chy an Horr
This is the traditional text from the start of the tale of John of Chyanor. It was recorded by Seamus, a speaker of Irish, Basque and a student of Cornish. He worked out the phonology of Cornish using various sources, and then read this passage as he believes it would have sounded during the time of the Boson family.
