gwely

== Welsh == === Etymology === From Proto-Brythonic *gwölɨɣ, ultimately a combination of Proto-Indo-European *upo + *legʰ- (“to lie (down)”), but the intermediate pathway is disputed. GPC goes with Proto-Celtic *uɸo-legyom. Schrijver thinks this word is a paradigmatic split-off from the oblique stem of *uɸolexs, with gwâl (“lair”) coming from the nominative singular. Cognate with Breton gwele, Cornish gweli. === Pronunciation === (North Wales) IPA(key): /ˈɡwɛlɨ̞/ (South Wales) IPA(key): /ˈɡweːli/, /ˈɡwɛli/ Rhymes: -ɛlɨ̞ === Noun === gwely m (plural gwelyau or gwelâu) bed ==== Derived terms ==== === Mutation === === References ===
