(In Welsh spelling, 'y' can be either a 'schwa'
- the neutral vowel to be heard in the first part of the English word 'about',
for example, or an 'i' sound, either short as in 'bit' or long as in 'beat',
depending on the word . In the versions of names between braces, we have marked
the 'y' pronounced as [i] with an umlaut (’). Examples are Glanconw’,
Rhandir-mw’n, Br’ngwran. This is not a standard Welsh spelling - but in
materials for learners of Welsh it is usual to use some special letter to
indicate this pronunciation to aid learners. The 'real' spelling therefore is
without the umlaut
Br’ngwran <
