Primary Research

[edit]

At the moment trying to find good initial sources of research on Glasney College, need to contact folks that own some of the content on the external links to see if they would author some content.

There is a very good book entirely on Glasney college: "Vincent, John, The History of Glasney College Church, 1903" BradMajors (talk) 10:04, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Name in Cornish

[edit]

The Kernowek name in the first line is 'Kolji Glasneth' whereas the inscription on the memorial stone has the Cornish translation as 'Glasnedh' both of which may sound similar to an English speaker (Th and Dh are /θ/ and /ð/ respecively, rarely distinguished in English) or that the Dh at the end of Cornish words isnt pronounced by all Cornish speakers (menydh can be pronounced/spelt 'mena' by some) which could explain the lack of dental fricative in the English name; i wondered if anyone knows whether this is a standard variation in spelling or whether its an error copied from the Welsh/Cornish wikipedias Jackass cooper (talk) 16:27, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unstressed final dh is pronounced /θ/, i.e. th in Tudor Cornish. Since the three varieties (Revived Middle, Tudor & Revived Late) are given equal standing in the Standard Written Form, it’s ‘correct’ to write Glasneth here, but (I’m guessing) not all speakers would say /θ/. It’s not clear if Wikipedia has any specific policy about Cornish orthography, but it would be surprising if it didn’t align with SWF since that’s the only agreed standard. ⚜ Moilleadóir 05:25, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
