agp - Welsh names

13 Nov 2024 1 31
Something I have always wondered about, why the Welsh names were not used ... maybe because the pronunciation isn't as self-explanatory as for some place names ? Much of the Welsh-speaking areas of North Wales have been gradually de-anglicising place names, so this is more of the same. I worry that insisting on this change is a bit too drastic and will put off some tourists - and a lot of Welsh speakers will be cringing when the proper names are completely mangled. Some thing that is bad enough already - exhibit A ; anywhere with Llan or Llyn in the placename. . Not my Image : fair use & public education
