The next 3 episodes are here… (but remember they get posted daily directly on the channel 😉 )
Les 3 épisodes suivants sont en ligne… (mais n’oubliez pas qu’ils sont mis en ligne chaque jour sur notre chaîne YouTube)
It seems we have been more active on video that with words – which seem in a way odd since video editing is from far more time-consuming than writing, but you know…. we love videos! Anyway, we’ll keep it short tonight, but just know that we started a small daily challenge on our YouTube channel (if you’re not subscribed yet, check it out! http://www.youtube.com/astrakanproject?sub_confirmation=1).
Curieusement, il semble que l’on soit plus actifs en vidéos ces temps-ci que sur le blog… ce qui semblerait étrange étant donné le temps que prend l’édition de chaque vidéo, mais pas tant que ça, si on se rappelle à quel point on aime les vidéos ! (mais dans tous les cas pensez à passer sur notre chaîne : http://www.youtube.com/astrakanproject?sub_confirmation=1)
We’ll post a short (less than one minute, in the shorts format easy to access on your phone!) video every day, with glimpses from our creative lives, and in which we can use more Breton – but with all kind of subtitles. You may learn some words on the way 😉 and effortlesly !
Et c’est le bon moment parcequ’on poste en ce moment une vidéo par jour (moins d’une minute, en format accessible sur mobile), avec des moments de nos journées toujours très remplies. C’est l’occasion d’utiliser plus de breton – mais avec plein de sous-titres bien sûr. Et c’est peut-être même l’occasion d’apprendre quelques nouveaux mots sans effort !
Here are the 3 first episodes / voici les 3 premiers épisodes
Please like and comment and share! It helps us immensely growing the channel! / S’il vous plaît, likez, partagez, commentez! Ca nous aide vraiment à faire connaître la chaîne.
The songs featured in the vlog and final part are both from Inês album and book.
For all the rest, watch the video – and leave us a nice comment so that we know you did and enjoyed it 😉
Subtitles in Breton/French/English
This is the end ! The end of a long project… (let us know your thoughts under the video & share it if you enjoyed it!)

Music from our album Inês (song n4 Ar Jujamant)
In the Breton language, “tan” is the word for “fire”, so it definitely makes more sense to us to spell it that way 😉
En breton, “tan” c’est le feu, c’est pour ça qu’on préfère l’écrire de cette façon 🙂
