Something I didn’t know until today.

What are the two English language words which come directly from the Welsh language? One of the answers didn’t surprise me because I think I heard about it before in the dim and distant past, but I would never have got the other one in a month of Sundays.

On a similar note, the River Avon is so-called because of the Welsh word for river (afon). So they've effectively called it the River River.

And some people say Welsh is an odd language?
