On: The lost letters of the English alphabet

[pacaro]

It's interesting that Welsh orthography has these sounds, but makes different transliteration choices into the Latin alphabet.

For example, dd is used for eth (I once worked with a woman called "Dydd", presumably short for Meredydd), and ll is used for yogh.

Some people will argue about the correct capitalization of 'ff' when used in names like ffion.

My knowledge of welsh is limited to road signs and watching S4C whilst inebriated. The contribution of a native speaker would be appreciated.
