@@jameshazelwood9433 Yes, but the meaning of the term 'nation' is _twofold: _*_geographical/cultural_*_ and_ *political*. The former refers to a collection of people of common attributes (e.g., shared culture, descent, history, language, geography, beliefs, etc.), so technically it is synonymous with 'ethnicity'. For example, 'the Roman Catholic nation'. Whereas, the latter refers to your political _nationality_ -- of what countr(y/ies) you have legal citizenship of. This is listed in your birth certificate and passport. For example, 'British', 'U.S.A.', and 'Canadian'. Definitely, the geogaphical/cultural nationality of Wales is 'Welsh', but its political/legal nationality is 'British'.

@jameshazelwood9433 2 года назад

@@amediocrecatholic7398 Wales does have a government that has substantial powers as seen in the lock down periods but you are correct to say we are part of the Union that also has substantial powers I do not think that is enough to say we are not a nation though as culturally I would say we are certainly the strongest of the Celtic nations. Being British is geographical and means you are from the Island of Britain it is not national like being European is not national although if you are from an EU member state then obviously you live politically under that Union like the Welsh live under the UK Union

See: Mister, Miss and Misses (Madam/Ma'am and Sir too) are normal forms of address for commoners, My Lord, My Lady (his/her Grace and other of this kind) are forms of address for the nobility - to be correct the peerage. If you are interested in form of address of the nobility feel free to use that link: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forms_of_address_in_the_United_Kingdom I hope I could help you because I didn't found a video of Tom, explaining this.

@@lindenbeck mister/ma'am, if you are from the UK and/or know this system pretty well, please do explain why Tom calls England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland "countries". If they really are countries, what is "the UK" then? Why are they not called "regions" or "states" like in the USA which would make more sense to me. I'm from Russia which is the name of the country. All of its constituent entities, depending on different factors, belong to a certain type (oblast', krai, republic, etc). Primorsky krai, the Republic of Mordovia, Tyva Republic, Moscow oblast', etc. - are simply different parts of the country named Russia (=the Russian Federation), each with their local laws (that still obey the laws of Russia).

Hi Tom! May be you will be more feedbacking man: there is one very interesting and big theme - it's about "Home Counties" in Britain. See, please: would you mind telling us how to pronounce for example: 1. Surrey (I always call it "Suh- rrr- ay", but not "Sah- rih"). And Surrey consists of: - Addlestone - Runnymede - Spelthorne - Waverley - Woking 2. Leicestershire: - Melton - Oadby and Wigston - Harborough - ...etc. It would be very helpful - how to say all of Britain places :) And not only RP English! How it sounds in other dialect too.
