Samuel J. Evans wrote this 5th edition of his short grammar on Welsh in 1908. Originally this work was intended as a textbook for pupils and students. The grammar includes chapters on orthography and the alphabet and spelling, etymology (classificaton, inflection and derivation of words), gives information on nominal and verbal morphology with a special focus on the mutation of vowels and consonants, a special feature of Welsh and Celtic languages in general. The chapter on syntax includes word order, concord of verb and subject, the absolute constructions of the verb.The work concludes with a list of contacted, irregular, and defective verbs and a chapter on parsing and analysis. The author sought to illustrate all rules by means of suitable examples drawn from the classics of Welsh literature. (Re-edition. Originally published 1908 in Newport).
