Ymons y enduys gans reson ha keskans hag y tal dhedhans omdhon an eyl orth y gela yn sperys a vredereth. The translated sentences you will find in Glosbe come from parallel corpora (large databases with translated texts).We make every effort to ensure that each expression has definitions or information about the inflection. As well as adding new terminology and extending the range of the dictionary, over time information about each word and usage will also be made available as will audio files to allow the pronunciations to be heard. This is indicative of the improving status of the language and is a credit to the hard work of the Cornish Language Board and the wider Cornish Language community. While in theory RMC and RLC may be defined as sharply distinct varieties of Cornish, the language spoken by many today is situated somewhere in between.

The Akademi comprises Cornish language experts and provides advice on standards for Cornish language in the Standard Written Form (SWF). Read through our tips, hints, and information on collecting books signed or inscribed by the author or illustrator. Cornish-English/English-Cornish dictionary for people in the first few years of learning the language.

Developed in 2008 and revised in 2014, the Standard Written Form of Cornish is the agreed orthography for use in public life, by Cornwall Council, and within education. The Standard Written Form also makes provision for the use of 'traditional graphs' such as word-final , which are held to be equally correct, for personal use. The dictionary is written in the Standard Written Form of Cornish and the intention is that it will be constantly updated and extended. One of the next stages of the Cornish language dictionary project is to add recordings to help learners hear how each word should be said.

Akademi Kernewek is recognised by Cornwall Council as the definitive body responsible for corpus planning for the Cornish language.For example some users of Middle Cornish-based orthographies will pronounce Middle Cornish long nn in words like penn ‘ head ’ as dn and say pedn , which is normally considered a feature of RLC. The Terminology Panel may then recommend to the Akademi Board that the 'proposed term' become an official term for the Cornish language dictionary. The SWF does not have a bias towards any end of the continuum and tagging is simply meant to help people choose forms that suit their style of Cornish. This is the fourth reprint and Morton-Nance memorial edition of the much sought–after 1938 dictionary.
