l In standard Welsh there is no symbol for a former ‘long l’ as doubling the ‘l’ gives ‘ll’ which serves for another sound. In Catalan, a similar problem occurs – a gemiknated ‘l’ cannot be represented by ‘ll’ as the symbol ‘ll’ serves for another sound. In Catalan the symbol ‘l·l’ is used to overcome this. In Welsh, however, no symbol was devised as it only presents a probelm in southern Welsh, where there exist half-long vowels in a penultimate syllable. In the North such vowels are short.

 

Here we mark a vowel with a grave accent to show that the vowel is not half-long as the ‘l’ was originally long. This: càlon (= heart).

 

Such words might be native Welsh words, or borrowings from English.

Native words: càlon (= heart).

From English: jèlws [ˡjɛlʊs]

lando [ˡlandɔ] (v) to land (= glanio [ˡglanjɔ], tirio [ˡtɪrjɔ])

lanlord [ˡlanlɔrd] (nm) landlord = tavern-keeper (= tafarnwr [taˡvarnʊr])
lanlordz [ˡlanlɔrdz] (pl) landlords = tavern-keepers (=

From English LAN’LORD < LANDLORD

(in a a parish-register entry for a marriage: “5 Nov 1745 Edward Morgan of ye parish of Lanvachas [and] Elizth Morgan of ye parish of Lanishen”) [though Llanishan with [a] might be expected]

#Llanfapla [ɬanˡvapla] (nf) place name (= Llanfable [ɬanˡvablɛ]) kimkat2187k
NOTES: This village is in Llan-arth Fawr parish, Sir Fynwy. The local form would be Llanfapla (confirmation needed)


(1) the final e becomes a; 
(2) and the [b] at the beginning of the final syllable becomes devoiced to [p]. 
The ‘English’ form of the name is Llanvapley which shows the b / p dialect feature in Welsh. 
(The ‘English’ form is in fact the Welsh name showing the influence of a local pronunciation and interference from English spelling conventions)

 

Llanfapon [ɬanˡva·pɔn]. Village name, (= Llanfabon [ɬanˡva·bɔn])

Llanf’ugan [ɬanˡvi·gan] (nf) place name (= Llanfeugan [ɬanˡvəɪgan])

Llangatwg [ɬanˡga·tʊg] (f) Llangatwg; Gwentian form of Llangadog [ɬanˡga·dɔg]

(Other spellings: Llangatwg)

 

Llangatwg F’ibon Afal [ɬanˡga·tʊg ˡvi·bɔn ˡa·val] (f) (standard Welsh = Llangatwg Feibion Afel [ɬanˡga·tʊg ˡvəɪbjɔn ˡa·vɛl]). The English form is Llangattock-Vibon-Avel, which is based on the Gwentian pronunciation of the name (Llangatwg was probably pronounced earlier Llangatog, with ‘o’, and this is the form taken into English. “Avel” is from the standard Welsh form “Afel”; locally it is “Afal”. The meaning is “(the) Llangadog / Llangatwg (of the) sons (of) Abel”, the tag distinguishing it from other places called “Llangatwg”.

(Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru / National Library of Wales. “Case C458. Lease and Release of Ricketts farm and other land in p[arish] Skenfrith... May 12-13, 1737)... William Jones of p[arish] Lantillio Cresseny, co. Monmouth, gent. 2. Thomas Evans of Langattock Vibon Aval, esq., and William Williams, gent. Lease and Release of Ricketts farm and other land in p[arish] Skenfrith.”

 


Llangatwg Lingo’d [ɬanˡga·tʊg ˡlɪŋgɔd] (f) (= Llangatwg Lingoed [ɬanˡga·tʊg ˡliŋgɔɪd])
(Grosmont Parish Register mentions Walter, son of James Preece alias Pritchard of Langattocke Lingod, baptised 4 November 1638.)


Llanishan [ɬanˡɪʃan] (f) (= Llanisan [ɬanˡɪsan]). Name of two villages; 1/ one now a suburb of Caer-dydd / Cardiff, and 2/ the other in Sir Fynwy / Monmouthshire, seven miles south-west of Trefynwy / Monmouth.

The English form is ‘Llanishen’, a variant in Welsh [
ɬanˡɪʃɛn] from a partial standardisation of the name, retaining the ‘sh’ instead of using the standard ‘s’; and assuming that the final ‘a’ is the Gwentian final ‘a’, which takes the place of final ‘e’ in words in standard Welsh.

 

However, in this case, it would seem that the ‘a’ is original and not a substitution of ‘e’. Isan was the name of a Welsh saint who lived in the 500s.

 

The saint’s name is seen in the pseudonym of the poet Dewi Isan, who lived in Llys-faen (Gwentian: Llys-fɛn), author of the poem ‘Ceuffordd y Cefn Onn’ (= The Cefn On Tunnel) which was victorious in the 1873 Llys-faen eisteddfod.
