gwyllt

• gwyll

From Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value), from Proto-Brythonic *gwɨlt (“wild”) (Old Cornish guill, Cornish gwyls (“wild”), Old Breton gueldenes (“untamed island”)), from Proto-Celtic *gʷeltis (“wild”) (Irish geilt (“lunatic”)), from Proto-Indo-European *gʷʰel-t-. May be cognate with English wild if Proto-Germanic *wilþijaz is also from *gʷʰel-t- and not, as sometimes proposed, from a *wel- (“hair, wool”).
