Edward Lhuyd: English-Welsh dictionary

A volume, c. 1700, containing an English-Welsh dictionary in the hand of Edward Lhuyd (1660-1709). The plan adopted was to write the English words in two columns, leaving a space after each word for the insertion of the Welsh equivalent; the manuscript begins with 'Badge' and ends with 'Calander' [sic], but the Welsh equivalents have only been given in comparatively few cases.

Lhuyd, Edward, 1660-1709 English-Welsh dictionary (c. 1700), NLW MS 238E
