Re your message concerning Iolo Morgannwg - I would hesitate before describing Iolo as being either 'loony' or small-brained. Do you have a Welsh dictionary? All the words you quote appear in my copy of 'Y Geiriadur Mawr'.The first part of your list, however - 'rhodd dasgubell'? seems less straightforward. The first word, 'rhodd' is not a problem, obviously, but 'dasgubell'? The word 'das' or 'tas' means a hay rick, while 'ysgubell' means a besom. Perhaps this word is made up, or is an archaic form not appearing in 'Y Geiriadur Mawr'. John Williams, Saudi Arabia
