Talk:Math ap Mathonwy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

According to the translation I've read, it's not a buck that Lleu has to stand on to become mortal, but a goat. Since I don't speak any Welsh and have never read the original, I can't be sure which is more accurate...

Got me, I just summarized the story from the source. howcheng {chat} 15:57, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clarity needed.

This is rather confusing:

The magician Gwydion (Gilfaethwy's brother), devised a plan to make Goewin available. He told his uncle about an animal that was new to Wales, called pigs, and how he could get them from their owner, Pryderi of Dyfed. He took a band of men, including his brother, to Ceredigion, where they disguised themselves as bards to gain audience with King Pryderi.

I cannot seem to figure out who "he" is. Because it is said, "He told his uncle", I'm assuming it is either Gwydion or Gilfaethwy but there is no way to know for sure. I'm not familiar with this, so can someone please edit this for clarity? I also edited the name Gwydion. In this section there were several spellings which might be confusing for the reader. There should be one fluid spelling throughout the article and the different spellings should be addressed in the Gwydion article.
