* Welsh does not use Sun-day as in English. Sunday would be Dydd Sul. Sunday night (Sun-night)
would be Nos Sul. One also has to watch for mutations in night references to Tues-night,
Wednes-night, and Fri-night which become Nos Fawrth (instead of Mawrth), Nos Fercher (instead of
Mercher), and Nos Wener (instead of Gwener).
