A fair description. I spent some time once in Llangollen, and the
patient coaching of some locals got my pronunciation moderately close.
It took some work, though.
Are there any Welsh meteorites?

The great dictionarianist Samuel Johnson

I suppose it depends on how angry the Welsh
speaker is at English dictionarianists...
