[edit] Ambiguity to be rectified

(from article at first π) "is the label attached to the Welsh language of the 12th to 14th centuries, of which much more remains than for any earlier period" (emphasis added)

I don't know enough about this subject to fix. However, I'm not sure to what the quoted language refers. Is it that more of the writing of this Welsh langauge from this period survives, that more of the language from this period is incorporated in modern Welsh, or something else. Probably one or two words added would suffice to clear up ambiguity. --Fuhghettaboutit 17:34, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

I think they're just trying to say that Middle Welsh has a large literary corpus, while Old Welsh consists of comparatively little. --Angr (t·c) 18:32, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
