  • "Yma o Hyd" is a Welsh language patriotic song commonly sung at Welsh football matches. It describes the everlasting struggle of the survival of the Welsh people, language and culture. It has also been seen as a cultural anthem of the Welsh people, as well as "Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau."
    Thanks to my good friend Evan for showing me this song!
    Apologies for any translations that may be incorrect,
    Audio in question is "Yma o Hyd - Dafydd Iwan"

      Also, I'm intrigued. could anyone please explain why the Greek letter omega "ω" is used in place of "w"?
      "This makes *paωb* feel very phopeth"
      instead of

The Ws all sharp and pointy, be it old manuscripts (they are in older on to modern friggin' Welsh language fonts. which artfully bothered to transform Welsh letters DD and LL: lowercase "dd" with the top pointy bits kissing each other, and one of the Ls on sat on another's lap (just look up Cymru Wales Serif or Cymru Wales Transport); but for W, fuck all, it's still W.

      Cymraeg is the name of the language(idk whether it is used as the name of the nationality). The name of the country is Cymru. Gymraeg is the soft mutated form. I guess you heard it from iaith Gymraeg which means Welsh language where iaith is feminine so the Cymraeg is softened to Gymraeg. I am not of Welsh ancestry too, and speak a bit of Welsh, still respect the hell out of genedl Gymru.

    I'm intrigued, could you or anyone please explain why the Greek letter omega "ω" is used in place of "w"? They're already so unrelated from each other; "ω" in its lowercase form, was originally two omicrons “oo” written together in Greek in the other end of Europe; the usage of "w" emerged separately from Latin "VV" or "uu" in the 7th or 8th centuries that later combined for the West Germanic languages and in turn the English language alongside Welsh due to both of them being in Great Britain.

    • @alynwillams4297
      @alynwillams4297 3 месяца назад +1

      The Greek letter omega (ω) is not typically used in place of "w." If it appears so, it's usually due to typographic errors, visual similarity, or stylistic choices. Historically, "w" originated from the doubling of "u" or "v" in medieval Latin to represent the /w/ sound, while omega represents a long "o" sound in Greek and has no relation to "w." Any substitution is likely a mistake or artistic choice, not a linguistic standard.
