Check fayr — if Welsh, ‘fair’ means ‘next’ or ‘beautiful’ (soft mutation of ‘mae’). mydya — ‘myd’ (meed) is not Welsh; but ‘my’ = my, ‘dya’? mn — in Welsh = ‘if’ (os, not mn). bwnd — in Welsh = band? ‘Bwnd’ not standard, but ‘bwn’ = load, ‘bwnd’ might be ‘bwnd’? jyms — not Welsh (no j in traditional Welsh).
The whole string could be an or transposition cipher . 10. Hypothesis: Each word’s letters have been sorted alphabetically or scrambled Check: thmyl sorted = hlmty — not helpful. lbt sorted = blt . jyms sorted = jmsy . bwnd sorted = bdnw . llandrwyd sorted = addllnrwwy . mn sorted = mn . mydya sorted = admyy . fayr sorted = afry .
lbt — ‘lbt’ = ‘lob it’? unlikely. jyms — ‘jyms’ = ‘gyms’? (j=g?). bwnd — ‘bwnd’ = ‘beyond’? (bwnd → b w n d, add e o? ‘beyond’ has 6 letters). Actually, let’s test Caesar cipher with shift of +1 (a→b) but backwards? No, systematic: thmyl lbt jyms bwnd llandrwyd mn mydya fayr
lbt = l b t → ‘l b t’ — maybe ‘lab t’? ‘lob t’? Or ‘let’? l e t → l y t? No, l b t → if b=e, then let? No, b would be e? Unlikely.
t → s h → g m → l y → x l → k
But possible if it’s or a code where each ciphertext word is a common word with vowels replaced: a→a, e→y, i→y sometimes? Actually in media → mydya : m m, e→y, d d, i→y, a a. So ciphertext y = either e or i in plaintext. That’s possible if the cipher just replaces vowels with y randomly or by position.
Try (A↔Z, B↔Y, etc.):
Still nonsense. But note llandrwyd — Welsh has ll as a single phoneme, dd as voiced ‘th’, wy as ‘oo-ee’ sound. This suggests the plaintext might be Welsh or pseudo-Welsh .
y → i or e a → unchanged? f → f? r → r. So fayr = f a y r → f a i r = fair. Works. mydya = m y d y a → m e d i a = media. Works perfectly: y→e and y→i? That’s inconsistent unless y maps to both e and i — impossible for simple substitution unless one plaintext letter maps to two ciphertext letters (unlikely). Check fayr — if Welsh, ‘fair’ means ‘next’
