It seems that the Wrexham co-owner Ryan Reynolds is trying his best to connect with the Welsh culture through language.

Ryan Reynolds Goes Welsh, as He Accepts the Dragon Award From the Government of Wales for His and Rob McElhenney&#8217;s Amazing Work

Ryan Reynolds bought Wrexham AFC in collaboration with Rob McElhenney last year.
This club was the first professional football team in Wales founded by members
of the town’s cricket club in 1864. The Canadian star bought it, intending to
revive the legacy and bring the club back to the English Football League. The
pair has been working dedicatedly since to reinforce Wrexham’s values and expand
its identity.



Reynolds and McElhenney found Wrexham different from other teams and loved how
their communities are connected to the soccer club. They have tried their best
to learn about Welsh culture whenever they visited the ground. And it seems the
Deadpool star has finally got it in him as he goes Welsh while accepting the
Dragon Award from the Government of Wales for his and partner’s amazing work. 


RYAN REYNOLDS SPEAKS WELSH DURING THE HONORING EVENT IN NEW YORK

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have been recently honored by S4C, the Welsh
government and the Football Association of Wales. The American stars received
the Diolch Y Ddraig (Dragon Award) for bringing the Welsh culture to an
international platform. They have been promoting the country and its language
through their series Welcome to Wrexham.

During the acceptance speech on stage, McElhenney nudged his friend and said,
“Do you want to try some Welsh Ryan?” In his response, the Red Notice star said
“Cymru am byth,” which means Wales Forever. Well, the 45-year-old actor has
finally learned to speak [https://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-wales-63643228] the
language.
