There are some words in Welsh that derive either from Latin or Norman French - 'ffenestr' for example comes from the French word 'fenestre' meaning a window. Capel/chapelle, bwtler/bouteiller, bwletin/bulletin, mistress/meistres, llaeth/lait, llyfr/livre, eglwys/eglise, castell/château (castel), tarw/ taureau, twr (with a ^)/tour, morgais/mortgage, cwfaint/couvent, porth/porte, wyth/huit...........

Welsh words that are the same in french?

pont, fenêtre, chapelle(capel) . I thought the Welsh was 'fenster', but it's certainly from the same root. In Welsh the word is - ffenestr or ffenest (as the last syllable is not often pronounced now). In French 'ê' means that originally an 's' is the following letter - it comes directly from Norman French. Castell (from castel) - eglwys (église).
