Zwinglïaeth f (uncountable, not mutable)

Usage notes

[edit]
  • Being derived from a proper name, Zwinglïaeth does not have its spelling adapted to typical Welsh orthographic conventions, which do not use the letter z. See also Kantiaeth (Kantianism).
  • Like many other unnaturalised nouns recently derived from other languages, Zwinglïaeth does not undergo initial mutation.
