Warning: May be severely disturbing to read the "proper" pronunciation of names we know and love and think we know how to pronounce already!

a few surprises, but I can't imagine how they get: Prifddinnas prive-THEE-nuss

so the ddi is pronounced as thee? the rest I can see, but I find this an awkward spelling. Did the welsh have a different alphabet or syllabary before the Roman alphabet?
