Some DireBions might he expeSed here, for the distingu^bing the Dia^leBs
wherein M^^S are written i hut the Foots and other Authors, nfing any words
that occurred in Books, whatever Countries they had keen written in $ there
is not neat that difference ofDiateSs in Mamt^ O o o X
firipts, that we find in fieakinri the' there he yet enough to render them
difUngutJIjahie, on Attention and Oofervation Us, es and ys, the Terrmnations
ef the Third Perfon fingular of the Freter Tenfe in the Southern Dialed, are
not as is common^ appre^ hended, a late corruption. For I find 'm in Manufiripts
ef ^oa years Handing, and the following Examples particularly in a Copy of
Bryd y Brenhinaedh, written ahout toot time. Yncca a achwanegvd. He augmented
i En ellyfyracfcrirehnvs Gilbas, In the Book that Gildas w^fej Ef a rannvs,

Then Beyno lest that place. Nor is tie Pronoun efo, ujed in N. Wahlf lefs
Authentic. For in an old Manufcript of the Life of St. David, I find it
frequently occurs. Yn yr Hon ny allavb neb prcgcrhu, namynefo, Wherem none

frtgular of the Verbs of the Freter Tenfe', Books written tn South Wales are
distingui/hahle by fuch words as are known to be of common ufi in that
Country, and fiarcebf or not at allfioken in North Wales. Such as Synyo aesd
hary anu. To regard or take heed; Dobi, To fet or put i Herki, To fetch ,•
FufSaw, To beats Hela, To drives A and helZy To finds Deifif, 7^ defires
Ervyn, To expeBs Kyuebach, Feafiing^ carowfings Argo), Afign, an artument s
or cu roaes, On the out fide s Faib, A court or yards Cacno, AFoxs Pawyn and
pawen, A Peacock, Sec. &c. As for the Corni&i and Armoric the difference
isfivery wide, betwixt their Manufiripts of the later Centuries 4nd ours s
that tho\ one were well skill'd in mffh, 'twould yet require abdut a month's
time to underfiand a Book written in either of thofi Diale&s. But if
there be any writings extant therein, field as the jthy %tk, ^thj or iQthy
Centuries i Iprefitmethey are fcarce distsngmfh^ able ae to Grammar fiom
Jf^^s and may be known only by fime words peculiar to thofi Countries ;
wherein the curious may in fame meafurefatisfy themfihes from their re^B'rue
Vocabularies. I bostfo hitherto met with no very ancient writing that fiemd
to be Comifli^ uniefiwejhould fi^B for fuch an ^egy on the Death of Ge'reint

Substantive, and the yerb Sum interpofed, it then retains it's Primary Initial:
as Dkl yu an gazak-na [Not Dhal yu an gazakna] That mare is bmul. So Em yu an
veneu-na ; Prederyz^u an ur^-na ; Medho yu an ho^'na^ &c. I fiid when the
Verb Sum it iuh terpofed. For if there be no fuch Veriput between the
Adjedive and it's Substantive and the Particle an prenufed; the Initial
Latter is then changed, as before : as An vrtz vinen-na, That big woman. But
this Variation of Gender is refuir'd only in the Singular Number. I have
obstrv'd no ether Difiin&ion of Gender in the Cornifh ; excepting that
Trei [Three'] is in tho Feminine, Tair : as Tair delkian. Three leaves i Tair

as to Number; the Plural Termination of Adjectives, tho’ it occur often in

One Singularity of
the British Language, and an Exception of theis Concord, is, that the Nouns
of Number require no Plural in their Substantives annext. For in the Cornish
they say yden [or y^n] Marh, One horse; and Kanz marh, [not Kanz merh] A
hundred horses. So Ma huî biuh dhodho, dêau marh, ha trei Kanz lɐdn
davaz; He has six cows, two horses, and three hundred sheep. Nor is it
otherwise in the Armoric and Welsh, saving that in the Northern Welsh they
commonly avoid it, by placing the Substantive in the Genitive Case Plural

their Separate uje^ as in other Languages, thofe wUch are called the Perfonal
and Edfleflive, are always entangled with the Prepoiitions, and theConjunAion
Ha, Atfd^ (as alfb A, Kath: ) The Prepofition and V tonoun, or Conjunaion and
Pronoun making but one word. Nor is this peculiar to the Comifli. For ( not
to mention Mecum, &c. in the Latin) it obtains alfo in the Armoric and
WelQi; and is no lefs obvious in that ancient Dialed esthe Briti(h, we fnd

Pronouns may render this Singularity lefs intricate.
