Happened to notice entry under "hwyl" in my Collins Spurrell, having never bothered to look that up (assuming it meant "joy", "have fun" and so forth). Here is the dictionary definition: "Hwyl (-au) nf sail; humour; religious fervour". Hmm! Among the words missing from Collins Spurrell are "Breton" (neither the word for the language, nor adjective, nor citizen) and "Cornish". It has words for both "Briton" and "British", and--just checked this--for "Irish" and "Scottish". Diddorol iawn. mg MGUNN@IRLEARN.UCD.IE
