I count myself as an honorary Welsh person. Nice harmless word - until you look into it and discover that it is at best a bad term. Should I go to war against anyone that uses the verb “welch” for all the negative connotations it has for my adopted people?
Do you mean Indigenous American Giver? Lol. Honestly, I’ve never encountered that phrase before so I looked it up. It’s probably even more problematic than the whole Welsh thing I was ranting about.
Is the issue that it sounds like an American origin racist word?
Should Spanish people also change their word for black because of youse?

I still hear people using that term, but as “Welch on”. I guess it’s their evolution of “Indian giver”. 😬 Not joking, unfortunately.
