 2026 Dedh Cans ha Dew











De Sül, dewdhegves mis Ebrel
Sunday, 12th April













War an diwedh, devedhys ew gwenton gwir.  Ma flourys dhe nei solabres bes, whath moy dhe les, ma nebes tyckies-Duw bian ha gwenen brâs owth apperya. Pe sort tycky-Duw? Kosek (cosek) brith ens, theram ow pedery. Da ew ganjans donsya e'n howlsplan e'n vôwnder. Terweythow mowns ow powes war dhelen. Ma lost rüdh dhe'n  wenenen vlewek ma. Ma hei ow powes war an payl. Pandr'ew hebma war dhans lew? Nag ew hei gwenenen. Kelyonen-vargesy (bargas) ew hei.












At last, true spring has arrived. We already have flowers but, even more important, several little butterflies and big bees are appearing. What sort of butterfly? They are speckled wood butterflies, I think. They like dancing in the sunshine in the lane. Sometimes they rest on a leaf. This hairy bee (bumblebee) has a red tail. It is resting on the fence. What is this on a dandelion? It is not a bee. It is a hoverfly.

There are many stalls with a lot of food made or grown by the people. Do you like something sweet? There's Cornish honey, there's fudge made with honey. On the same stall there are various preserves, such as marmalades. You need bread to eat with your preserve? I could see all kinds of loaves and cakes. Perhaps you bou...
