</p><p><span title="Welsh-language text"><i lang="cy">Cofi</i></span> has been called "one of Wales’ most famous regional dialects". In 2011, the Welsh television production company <span title="Welsh-language text"><i lang="cy">Cwmni Da</i></span> organised a special event at <a href="Caernarfon_Town_F.C." title="Caernarfon Town F.C.">Caernarfon Town Football Club</a> celebrating the <span title="Welsh-language text"><i lang="cy">Cofi</i></span> dialect.

</p><p>According to broadcaster Mari Gwilym, "<span title="Welsh-language text"><i lang="cy">Cofi</i></span>s are straight as arrows and we are extremely proud of the <span title="Welsh-language text"><i lang="cy">Cofi</i></span> dialect as it is a real asset to Wales.

</p><p>The <span title="Welsh-language text"><i lang="cy">Cofi</i></span> dialect has been "immortalized" in the radio monologues of Richard Hughes and in <a href="William_David_Owen" title="William David Owen">William Owen</a>'s stories <span title="Welsh-language text"><i lang="cy">Chwedlau Pen Deitsch</i></span> (1961) <sup id="cite_ref-Encyclopaedia_Wales_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Encyclopaedia_Wales-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

When you first meet a <span title="Welsh-language text"><i lang="cy">Cofi</i></span>, you’re usually greeted with this deadpan sort of look, you can never tell what’s going through their minds. That’s probably down to shyness or a desire to be left alone.
