Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Welsh Grammar, Historical and Comparative "This book," as V. Henry says of his Breton Lexique, "has the misfortune to have a history." It would be tedious, even if it were possible, to relate it in detail; but the long delay in the appearance of the work calls for a brief account of the facts by way of explanation and apology. In the early nineties I contributed to the new edition of the Welsh encyclopaedia Y Gwyddoniadur an article on the Welsh language, which contained a sketch of Welsh grammar. This sketch was expanded in a course of lectures delivered to the Junior and Intermediate classes at Bangor after the foundation of the University of Wales. The idea occurred to me of preparing the substance of the lectures for publication as a textbook of Welsh grammar; but I was unable at the time to carry out the investigation which seemed to me necessary before such a book could be properly written. The work was intended to be a descriptive grammar of Modern Welsh with special reference to the earlier period. Late Modern Welsh is more artificial, and in some respects further removed from the spoken language, than Early Modern Welsh, owing largely to the influence of false etymological theories; and the object which I had in view was the practical one of determining the traditional forms of the literary language. Even scholars have been deceived by the fictitious forms found in dictionaries; thus "dagr" given by Silvan Evans, after Pughe, as the sg. of dagran, is quoted as a genuine form even by Strachan, Intr. 33;see below p.212 Note. I had however chiefly in mind the ordinary writer of the language, to whom a clear idea of the literary tradition is at least equally important.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Welsh Grammar IN compiling this little book I have tried to give prominence, by rule and example, to the first elements Of Welsh Grammar. All details have been carefully excluded, except where they were thought to illustrate some important point in the language. I hope the book will be Of service to three classes Of students (1) Those boys and girls of our County Schools who are taking up Welsh for the Junior Certificate Of the Central Welsh Board; (2) Welsh-speaking Queen's Scholarship Candidates, of whom it is to be hoped an ever-increasing number will take up Welsh as their Optional language; and (3) Englishmen who desire to acquire some knowledge of Welsh without having to master at the very threshold a mass of detail, which is more confusing than helpful, and which only serves to discourage those who might otherwise soon master the language. I have sought to illustrate all rules by means of suitable examples drawn from the classics Of Welsh literature. Rules without ex amples are rarely understood even by advanced students. For junior pupils they are absolutely meaningless. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Early Welsh I think I must draw up and print outlines of middle-welsh grammar. I cannot well teach without some book, and the beginner is lost in the wilderness of the Grammatical Celtica. His original intention evidently was to publish a mere sketch of the grammar, somewhat like his old-irish Paradigms. But at the suggestion of his friend and colleague, Professor T. F. Tout, he decided to expand the Grammar on the larger and fuller lines of the present volume. At the same time the plan of adding a Reader of excerpts from mediaeval Welsh literature took concrete shape in the course of conversations and correspondence with Dr. Evans. On both these tasks he began to work during the Summer Term of 1907. With what amazing rapidity he must have toiled to have all but completed the work by the end of the following August! Giving up a visit to Germany to which he had long been looking forward, he devoted the whole long vacation to the preparation and printing of his book. At the moment of his death, on the 25th of September, both the Grammar and Reader were in type, and he had read a first, and in some cases a second, proof. Writing to Professor Thurneysen a week before his death, he says that he had then only the notes and vocabulary to add.
