Square Enix's #VoiceOfCards: The Isle Dragon Roars features characters with #Welsh references. The Welsh word for the colour white, famous poet Hedd Wyn, Saint Winifred, and the Berwyn mountains may all be inspiration behind the names. Watch the video to learn more. #Wales #Cymru #Cymraeg

Welsh word of the day

Today's word:

Clogyn

Meaning "cloak"

Inspired by tonight's episode of Star Trek TNG - "The Pegasus". Different kind of cloak, I know, but I'm pretty sure there's not a word in Cymraeg for "cloaking device". Happy to be proved wrong, though.
