By themselves - the Welsh By the English - the Taffs +++ Believe it or not, most of we English call you Welsh, "Welsh" too! :-) "Taff" presumably from the South Welsh river of that name?
White river
No. There are actually several rivers called the Avon. (It's the Welsh word for river.)
Some people have nicknamed Welsh men Taffy, probably derived from the river Taff, in Wales. Or from "Dafydd" a common male Welsh name.
Afon Twrch in Welsh (River Twrch)
The river Wye (it runs along the Welsh/English border)
One example of a Welsh and French word that are similar is "abertawe" in Welsh and "Aberdeen" in French, both meaning "mouth of the river". Another example is "bws" in Welsh and "bus" in French, both meaning "bus".
