Talk:tawlbyund

Source?

@LlywelynII, where is this spelling from? GPC has a wide variety of alternative spellings of tawlbwrdd, but not this or anything even close to it. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 14:56, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

This was ages ago, but any weird old Welsh variants I added would have been part of this book. Google shows other people using this form but, as far as the original cite, it's going to be in the the Welsh section of this text... but with the odd medieval W that makes text search hinky.

I try to include quotes with new odd forms to help with situations like this, but in any case if it's too far outside the mainstream you can tag it rare or just delete it and (ten or fifty years later) someone will get around to adding it back when they notice the original again. — LlywelynII 01:17, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

If it's in there, I won't try to get it deleted. But I would call the words in that text Middle Welsh (wlm) rather than Modern Welsh (cy). —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 07:49, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
