Talk:Welsh
The reason why I left Welsh in Dutch is because two of the most prominent Dutch dictionaries have it. More detailed:
- Verschueren Groot Encyclopedisch Woordenboek has both Wels and Welch for the language and both Wels(e) and Welsh(e) for the adjective;
- Van Dale Groot Woordenboek der Nederlandse Taal' only has Welsh (language) and Welsh(e) (adjective);
- Van Dale Groot Woordenboek Nederlands Engels and Engels Nederlands have both Wels and Welch (yes, with -ch, but marked seldom used) for the language and both Wels(e) and Welch(e) (marked seldom used) for the adjective.
IMO, it is safe to say both Wels and Welsh are used in Dutch. D.D.
