Wow I don't know where I dragged those out from. Sorry to have forgotten cwningen though. 'Cranc' is nice, I didn't know that one at all. Nice quiz.

This was a lot of fun :D

Just want to add for my fellow South Welsh (in case any of you are looking for hints in the comments) that you might've learnt 'tylluan' as 'gwdihŵ' ♥
