Well, honey, both Breton and Welsh are Celtic languages, so it's like they're distant cousins who share some genes. They both have roots in the Brythonic branch of the Celtic language family tree, so it's no surprise they have some similarities. It's like finding out you have the same great-great-grandma as your neighbor down the street - small world, huh?
