Welsh Grammar A WELSH GRAMMAR STEPHEN J. WILLIAMS CARDIFF UNIVERSITY OF WALES PRESS 1980 © University of Wales Press, 1980 Reprinted, 1981, 1986 British Library Cataloguing in Publication Data Williams, Stephen Joseph A Welsh grammar. 1. Welsh language—Grammar I. Title II. Williams, Stephen Joseph. Elfennau gramadeg Cymraeg. Adaptations 491.6'6'82421 PB2123 ISBN 0-7083-0735-3 ISBN 0-7083-0737-X Pbk All rights reserved. No part of this book may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted, in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording or otherwise, without clearance from the University of Wales Press. Cover Design by Chris Jackson, Drake Design Printed by: J. W. Arrowsmith Ltd, Bristol FOREWORD The book on Modern Welsh Grammar entitled Elfennau Gramadeg Cymraeg (University of Wales Press, 1959) was intended for readers studying Welsh through the medium of the language itself. It appears that there is a demand for a similar work written in English, and it was at the request of The Board of Celtic Studies and the University Press Board that the present edition was prepared. It is hoped that it will meet the needs of readers desiring to become acquainted with standard literary Welsh whether they have a knowledge of colloquial Welsh or not. The standard of literary Welsh has been greatly influenced in the present century by the researches of scholars in the various fields of Welsh studies. For example, the reform of the orthography was gradually adopted by Welsh writers in general; the re-classification of Accidence was accepted without demur; a fresh study of Syntax has been welcomed, and re-appraisal of the context and history of our literature has been most beneficial. The salient features of the language form the basis of all formal teaching and studying of the subject. The classification of Accidence and Syntax is essential, and that is why this handbook is so much concerned with these matters. The interspersion of frequent syntactical notes in the treatment of Accidence is intended to make it more meaningful. The sections on Syntax, as such, are therefore devoted to the Sentence, in addition to the syntactical significance of the consonantal mutations summarized in APPENDIX A. The many references to colloquial and dialect words and expressions are intended sometimes for comparison of spoken and written forms, and somctimcs to draw attention to dobased colloquial usages. The use of a recent Welsh-English Dictionaiy with this handbook is recommended. The references under ABBREVIATIONS give some indication of my indebtedness to some writers, but there are many more from whose work in books, articles, etc. I have greatly profited. My sincere thanks are due to the University of Wales Press for publishing the book, to the printers for their care and especially to Mr. Alun Treharne and Mr. John Rhys for their interest and help.

These are signs denoting sounds or phonemes, and each sign has a traditional name (shown below in Welsh spelling): sign name sign name sign name a a ng eng r er b bî h âets rh rhi, rho c èc i î s ès ch èch 1 èl t tî d dî 11 èll th èth dd èdd m èm u û e ê n èn w ŵ f èf o ô y y ff èff P PÎ g èg ph ffì Vowels: a, e, i, o, u, w, y, but i and w may be consonantal in diphthongs (see § 4). Vowels are either long or short; but a vowel that is long in a final syllable becomes medium in a non-final syllable before a single consonant, e.g., cân, (long á), canu (medium a). (b) Vowel-sounds: LONG a, as in tad, is like a in E. father. e, as in gwên, is like Northern E. a in make. i, as in gwin, i slike E. ee in meet. o, as in bod, is like Northern E. o in so. u, as in pur, resembles Fr. u, but is less rounded. w, as in sŵn, is like oo in E. moon. y has two sounds: (1) clear, as in byd, has the same sound as u in North Wales; in South Wales it is sounded like z. (2) obscure, as in^y (the defmite article), is like e in E. her and u in E. hurdle. It is medium in length in non-final syllable, e.g., byddaf cryfaf. SHORT a, as in mam, is like Northern E. a in cab. e, as in pen, is like E. e in let. i, as in dim, is like E. i in pit. o, as in hon, is like E. o in cod. u, as in ust, is somewhat less rounded than long u in North Wales, and is the same as short i in South Wales. w, as in cwm, is like E. oo in hood. 2 THE ALPHABET y, (1) clear, as in bryn, is like short u in North Wales and like short i in South Wales. (2) obscure, as in some unstressed words (y, yr, yn, fy, dy, myn, ys, syr), is like E.

    Braids of Song Gwead y Gân by Mari Morgan BMus (Hons), MA. Supervised by: Professor Menna Elfyn and Dr Jeni Williams Submitted in partial fulfilment for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Creative Writing University of Wales Trinity Saint David 2019 Er cof am fy nhad, Y Parchedig E D Morgan a ddiogelodd drysor. In memory of my father, the Reverend E D Morgan who preserved a treasure. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS With grateful thanks for the generous support of: North America Wales Foundation (Dr Philip Davies and Hefina Phillips) Welsh Women’s Clubs of America (Barbara Crysler) Welsh Society of Philadelphia (Jack R. Williams, Jr.) Diolch o galon: for the experience and guidance of my supervisors, Professor Menna Elfyn and Dr Jeni Williams, for the friendship and encouragement of Karen Rice, for my siblings always, Nest ac Arwel, for the love and steadfast support of Lisa E Hopkins, and for the unconditional love of my mother, Thelma Morgan. Diolch am fod yn gefn. iv Abstract The desire to recognise the richness, humanity, and cross fertilisation of cultures and identities that built today’s America is the starting point for Braids of Song. Its overarching concerns trace the interrelation between immigration, identity and creativity within a Welsh Trans-Atlantic context. Braids of Song is a mixed-genre collection of stories that acknowledges the preciousness of culture; in particular, the music, which is both able to cross different linguistic boundaries and to breach those between melody and language itself. The stories are shared through four intertwined narrative strands in a mixture of literary styles, ranging from creative non-fiction essays and poems to dramatic monologues.

  • Old and Middle Welsh David Willis ([email protected]) Department of Linguistics, University of Cambridge
    Old and Middle Welsh David Willis ([email protected]) Department of Linguistics, University of Cambridge 1 INTRODUCTION The Welsh language emerged from the increasing dialect differentiation of the ancestral Brythonic language (also known as British or Brittonic) in the wake of the withdrawal of the Roman administration from Britain and the subsequent migration of Germanic speakers to Britain from the fifth century. Conventionally, Welsh is treated as a separate language from the mid sixth century. By this time, Brythonic speakers, who once occupied the whole of Britain apart from the north of Scotland, had been driven out of most of what is now England. Some Brythonic-speakers had migrated to Brittany from the late fifth century. Others had been pushed westwards and northwards into Wales, western and southwestern England, Cumbria and other parts of northern England and southern Scotland. With the defeat of the Romano-British forces at Dyrham in 577, the Britons in Wales were cut off by land from those in the west and southwest of England. Linguistically more important, final unstressed syllables were lost (apocope) in all varieties of Brythonic at about this time, a change intimately connected to the loss of morphological case. These changes are traditionally seen as having had such a drastic effect on the structure of the language as to mark a watershed in the development of Brythonic. From this period on, linguists refer to the Brythonic varieties spoken in Wales as Welsh; those in the west and southwest of England as Cornish; and those in Brittany as Breton. A fourth Brythonic language, Cumbric, emerged in the north of England, but died out, without leaving written records, in perhaps the eleventh century.

  • Riverside Walk
    4 miles Longwood Walk 1. From the hotel walk up the North drive past the farm (beware of the farm dogs). Pass the cottages on your left and continue to follow the lane. 2. Before the bend in the road you will come to a field on your left with a path signposted to the left. 3. Go over the stile and follow a green pathway alongside the field until you reach a road at the other side. Make a sharp left and you will see another forestry path. 4. Continue going up the hill through the pine trees, past the traffic gate until you reach a clearing. On the other side of the clearing the path continues with an incline – this will be slippery and muddy during rainfall. 5. On reaching the top of the incline you will have a flat simple path to follow through Longwood. Fabulous during bluebell season. On the left-hand side of this wood you can overlook Home Farm and the surrounding areas. 6. At the end of the path you will reach a stile and a road, which is called Maestir road. Take a left and follow the road downhill back towards Lampeter. 7. On reaching the end of the road bear left towards the Murco garage where you will find the sign for the hotel on your left and the beginning of the South drive. Caution: Some parts of this walk are a little hilly. The Falcondale Country House Estate Ltd Falcondale Drive, Lampeter Ceredigion SA48 7RX Tel: 01570 422910 [email protected] .

    Welsh Lessons © Antone Minard, 2016 This series of lessons is designed to accompany the Welsh courses I offer through the Vancouver Welsh Society, currently scheduled to meet once a week for two ten-week terms. They are designed to supplement the class meetings, or to substitute if you have missed a meeting, or just to serve as a reference. Because heritage language learners all come with different abilities and progress at different paces, each lesson is divided into three sections: Level A for Beginners, Level B for Intermediate, and Level C for advanced. Each lesson starts with a flowchart to help you assess your level for that particular lesson. This is a work in progress, and over the next year or so I will be adding dialogues, exercises, and example quotes from Welsh songs and folklore, and if I can find someone to contribute, illustrations. If there are errors, or if you find something confusing, please contact me at [email protected]. The Welsh Lessons here are meant to complement your other learning tools. There are a lot of great resources online, such as the Say Something in Welsh course (https://www.saysomethingin.com/welsh/course1). The awesome duolingo now has Welsh; it’s not perfect, but it’s very effective for progress in the early stages. Finally, of course, if you’re not a member of the Vancouver Welsh Society, why not join via Paypal as a thank you? Only $20 per year for an out-of-area membership.
