- A. W. Wade-Evans, “Fishguard Welsh (Cwmrag Abergwaun),” Transactions of the Guild of Graduates for the Year 1906 (Cardiff, 1907), p. 28. The author states that, since Fishguard Welsh tended to form noun plurals by means of adding terminations rather than altering medial vowels, he was as a child often bewildered as to the method of forming the plurals of words like arth, tarw, and so on. The plural cacwn ‘hornets’ was regarded (metanalyzed?) as singular, and the plural cacwns was formed from it, another example of additive numerical metanalysis (and, in part, bilingual). This is reminiscent of such hypercharacterized plurals as spaghettis, with the preliminary analysis of spaghetti as a singular, as in the case of media, graffiti, and so on.
- The journal Transactions, which is exceedingly difficult to find in the United States, often has valuable contributions of philological and linguistic nature. Its Dialect Section produced numerous compilations of great value.

Parry-Williams, The English Element in Welsh (London: Hon. Soc. of Cymmrodorion, Record Series, No. x, 1923), p. 59 (hereafter cited as EEW). The late T H. Parry-Williams, who was perhaps first a poet (one of the best in Europe) and then a professor, was also a scholar whose philological writings are still quoted, although he himself belittled them. The scholar-poet is still not uncommon in Celtic lands.
