Thread Name: Origin:Bells of Rhymney (Idris Davies/Pete Seeger)
Subject: RE: Bells of Rhymney
I can pronounce North Welsh words reasonably well (I think!), but I know there are differences in South Wales (and Argentina!) but I don't know what they are, since I've not spent much time down there. Maybe we can start a new thread in Welsh lessons?
The "Oranges and Lemons" rhyme is a bit different from the "classical" version I learned as a kid. I've never come across another version before.
