Linguists start compiling first ever complete dictionary of ancient Celtic More than 1,000 words used as far back as 325BC to be collected for insight into past linguistic landscape It is not likely to be a hefty volume because the vast majority of the material has been lost in the mists of time. But the remnants of a language spoken in parts of the UK and Ireland 2,000 years ago are being collected for what is being billed as the first complete dictionary of ancient Celtic. The dictionary will not be huge because relatively few words survive, but experts from Aberystwyth University say they expect they will end up with more than 1,000 words. Continue reading...

Oxford, Jesus College MS 111, fol. 130r. A drawing of a two-legged dragon in red, marking a run-on at the bottom of a page. His long tail is curled behind him and in front of him is the run-on and a red rectangle with some cross hatching. Three lines of text in Middle Welsh are visible above the dragon.

Is a dragon plaguing your land? A fix from medieval Wales:

1. Dig a hole, fill it w/mead, & cover w/a sheet.

2. Wait for the dragon to tire itself out & turn into a pig.

3. Let the pig fall in the hole, get wrapped in the sheet & drink all the mead.

4. Capture the drunk pig in a chest & bury it.
