“THE WELSH LANGUAGE”

.

(‘western brittonic languages’ comprise 2 dialects into which ‘common brittonic’ split during the ‘early middle ages’)

(its counterpart was the ancestor of the ‘southwestern brittonic languages’)

(the ‘reason’ + ‘date’ for the split is often given as the ‘battle of deorham’ in ‘year 577’, at which point the victorious ‘saxons’ of ‘wessex’ essentially cut ‘brittonic-speaking britain’ into 2 groups)

(‘western brittonic languages’ were spoken in ‘wales’ + the hen ogledd (meaning “old north”), an area of ‘northern england’ + ‘southern scotland’)

(1 ‘western language’ evolved into ‘old welsh’ + thus to the modern ‘welsh language’)

(the language of hen ogledd (‘cumbric’) became ‘extinct’ after the expansion of the middle irish-speaking dál riata polity)

(‘southwestern brittonic’ became the ancestor to ‘cornish’ + ‘breton’)
