The Language of the Old North · Revitalised for Today
Cumbric was the Brittonic tongue of Cumbria, Strathclyde, and the Pennine uplands — the language of Rheged, the Gododdin, and the kingdoms of the Old North. It fell silent around the twelfth century, but its traces survive in place-names, counting rhymes, and the very accent of northern England. This site presents Revitalised Cumbric: a structured, evidence-based recovery of that language, grounded in the NBTRF framework and the shared heritage of the Brittonic family.
