To: Multiple recipients of list WELSH-L Jani's request re: "Hiraeth" - does it mean "longing for the land"? My brother, Denys Short, put on a display of his scultpures a few years ago in Dinas, Dyfed, Wales which he entitled "Hiraeth". On the poster for the display he used the definition " an expression of a feeling of nostalgic longing". Like many words in any language, I guess it's the "sense" of the word that is important, rather than a literal translation. :-) David (-: * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * o David Short, Director of Resources o School District 46 (Sunshine Coast) o * * o (604) 886-8184 (Voice) o (604) 886-8169 (Fax) o e-mail dshort@cln.etc.bc.ca o * * "Gorhemmynadow and gwella dhys-oll" (Kernewek) | "Best wishes to you all" (Cornish) * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
