It was a hectic day! Eight family members came for my birthday, and we went to Bolingey Inn to eat lunch. I took several photos, but now I can't find my camera! So, here's a bit more lesson instead of them.

Building up our Cornish language. Part 7b

Yesterday we looked at the feminine ending -es. Here is another feminine ending - that can be added to a collective plural to make a feminine singular, -en, e.g.

colom pigeons > colobmen

commol clouds > comolen

gwedh trees > gwedhen

gwenyn bees > gwenenen

gwibes mosquitos > gwibesen

kenis spiders > kenisen

kesten chestnuts (trees) > kestenen

reden ferns > redenen


However, not every word ending with -en is feminine e.g.

dehen cream

And not every -en feminine word has a collective plural, e.g.

tesen cake (plural tesednow)
