Good to see #WelshEnglish represented further in the OED! Of the ten items added, you can find 8 reported in 'Welsh English' (2021), the dialect monograph that I worked on with Paulasto & Penhallurick! (Sorry #sglods!) #WorldEnglish #Dialect #Sociolinguistics #Wenglish
The first update to be published since we have implemented a new approach to documenting World Englishes, the September OED release includes new and revised entries from Welsh English, such as Calennig, a New Year’s gift. Read more: oxford.ly/3MKq9R4
