(8) GLANRHYMNI
According to John Hobson Mathews (Mab
Cernyw) in ‘Cardiff Records’ (1889-1911), Glanrhymni
(locally Lanrymni) was also called Landrymni,
though it is not clear if it was so called in Welsh or if it is a variant which
developed among English speakers.
Nowadays the place is a suburb of Caer-dydd, known as Llanrhymni, with an erroneous llan
(= church) having replaced glan / lan
(= riverbank).
John Hobson Mathews: “Lanrumney, recte
Glanrhymny (the bank of the Rhymny.)
A manor in the parishes of Rumney and Saint Mellon in Monmouthshire, and
Llanedern, Glamorgan (1653) It is also called the manor of "Wentloog alias
Keynsham." Lanrumney (often sounded Landrumney) is also the name of the
mansion, which is on the river’s bank in the parish of Saint Mellon”

be infested with

..a/ Dafydd (= David) > English “Taffy”
..b/ Dinbych ў Pўsgod (name of a town) > English “Tenby”
..c/ Dintarn Tintern (name of an abbey)
The reason may be that the ‘d’ was heavily aspirated, and the voicing of the
consonant was not as distinctive; as a result it was understood as a ‘t’ by
English speakers

da <DA> [dɑ] verb
1
In north-western forms of standard colloquial dyn ni / dych chi / dyn nhw,
which in the north have become den
ni / dech chi / den nhw.
These ‘e’ forms are
north-eastern; the north-west has e >
a in a final syllable, hence
dan ni / dach chi / dan nhw
(1) da ni / da chi / da nhw more
closely indicate the pronunciation (since the ‘n’ and ‘ch’ are not geminated
consonants – they are not prolonged, as for example in English “ten nights”).
(2) The corresponding literary forms are
ydym ni = we are
ydych chwi = you are
ydynt hwy = they are
NOTE: All these colloquial forms are also written with a preceding apostrophe
to indicate the loss of the initial y-;
with the added advantage of indicating that this is not the word da <DAA> [dɑː] =
good, and that being from a disyllabic word the final vowel must be short <DA> [dɑ]
’da ni / ’da chi / ’da nhw;
