@perkinskeighley.bsky.social🧵 2/2
Even phrases made entirely from English words can carry traces of Welsh influence, showing how language contact can leave its mark in subtle & unexpected ways.
@perkinskeighley.bsky.social🧵 1/2
Some are direct borrowings from Welsh while others reflect Welsh structures and expressions that have shaped the way English is spoken in Wales.
@perkinskeighley.bsky.socialWords cannot describe how much I love this.
The latest update to the Oxford English Dictionary includes six words and phrases from Wales, among them "twpsyn", "bwbach" and the wonderfully contradictory "now in a minute".

"Sleep is the Courting Bird
That droops its brilliant tail
Onto your cloudy brain
Then twirling thrice its regal neck
Pecks bronze & furious beak
Through your nascent thought
& settles in to guide the night."
