nhain
From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Pronunciation
Noun
nhain
- (North Wales, colloquial) Aspirate mutation of nain.
Usage notes
In standard Welsh, N is not affected by the aspirate mutation. However, some, especially northern, dialects employ a non-standard aspirate mutation of nain to nhain. In practice, this only occurs after the determiner ei (“her”). See also mam to mham for a similar example.
