We begin the news in Cornish this week with the news that a community has helped a boy who lost his fishing boat in a storm to buy a new one. Listen out for these Cornish words: fish, puskes [puss-KEZ], lobsters, legesti [leg-ES-tea], sea, mor [more], and shore, morrep [mor-REP].

TRANSLATION:
Antony, 12, is well-known in Cawsand for selling his catch of fish, crabs and lobsters on the beach. At the beginning of 2024, his boat was washed away during a storm 鈥 and returned to the shore shattered.
"He was really distressed that it was gone, really upset, really angry that it was broken and that was it," his mum Michal said. To help Antony return to the sea as quickly as possible, the community came together to raise 拢2,500 in four days. Antony said he was "really surprised" by the funds raised.
PRESENTER: Our next story concerns the news that there has been a significant rise in the number of people learning Cornish. Listen out for the following words in the story: speak, kewsel [COWS-el], Cornish, Kernewek [cur-NEH-weck] and week, seythen [SAY-then].

TRANSLATION Speak Cornish Week will see a variety of events to celebrate the language between 22 June and 30 June. Speak Cornish Week is aimed to get the language spoken in the community and this year鈥檚 theme is "a warm Cornish welcome". Run by An Rosweyth, a group of Cornish language community organisations, the events aim to encourage people to greet each other with one of the "many different Cornish welcoming words and phrases". "The Cornish language has seen a significant rise in the number of learners, not only across the UK, but internationally too," according to a statement from Speak Cornish. "With businesses and organisations also getting in on the act we decided that this was the year to make Cornish greetings the norm.

Congratulations to the people from Cornwall honoured by the King. Amongst them, two people from Falmouth and Par, were appointed MBEs for making a difference to young people's lives. Four people have been given British Empire Medals for their work in the community and for charities. David Nicoll, from the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) Falmouth Station, was one of the people who received a BEM. He is also the fundraising and partnership lead for the south-west of England, and joined as volunteer crew in 1980 aged 18. Sharron Adams has been appointed an MBE after she stepped up to provide management for two children's homes during the Covid-19 pandemic. That鈥檚 all from me, have a good week.
