‘Llanw a thrai’ (‘ebb and flow’): place-names and language shift on the Gwent Levels'

Dylan Foster Evans of the Welsh Place Names Society presents this fascinating talk looking at the place-names of the Gwent Levels and the evidence they provide for language shift between Welsh and English.

At various times, the language of the Levels seems to have shiffted from Welsh to English and from English to Welsh, a process that has left its mark on the place names of this unique area.

This event will be delivered via Zoom.
