===Middle Welsh=== {{main|Middle Welsh}} Middle Welsh ({{lang|cy|Cymraeg Canol}}) is the label attached to the Welsh of the 12th to 14th centuries, of which much more remains than for any earlier period. This is the language of nearly all surviving early manuscripts of the {{lang|cy|[[Mabinogion]]}}, although the tales themselves are certainly much older. It is also the language of the existing [[Welsh law]] manuscripts. Middle Welsh is reasonably intelligible to a modern-day Welsh speaker. <gallery mode="packed" heights="150" caption="Languages of Wales 1750β1900"> File:Map o ieithoedd Cymru (A map of the languages of Wales) - 1750.svg|1750 File:Map o ieithoedd Cymru (A map of the languages of Wales) - 1800.svg|1800 File:Map o ieithoedd Cymru (A map of the languages of Wales) - 1850.svg|1850 File:Map o ieithoedd Cymru (A map of the languages of Wales) - 1900.svg|1900 </gallery> {{align|center|'''Key''': β’ Welsh {{color box|#80c040}} β’ Bilingual {{color box|Pink}} β’ English {{color box|White}}}}
