Pwyll's feats so far: earned a ticket to godhood for when he dies by following the bro code, got his future wife to slow her magical horse down simply by asking nicely, secured his marriage by listening to his fiance, stands by his wife when everyone accuses her of baby-eating. Turns out you don't need do something as hard as slay a dragon to be a legendary hero. Sometimes all it takes is being an upstanding, righteous dude who has a few cases of good luck.

I.....I can't even fully process the level of broness here. And I'm not just talking about not banging someone's wife when you have the chance. Two guys that met randomly while hunting and on the wrong foot, talk it out and switch lives. Both of them, with full control over the other's reputation and free to ruin the other's reputation without any immediate blame on them, do their absolute BEST to make the life the other will return to better. Pwyll, not only rules well for Arawn, not only refuses to make any moves on his wife but gets him out of a life or death duel and gets him ALL of Annwyn. Meanwhile Arawn goes over to Pwyll's kingdom and sees to it that it prospers and is even better than when Pwyll left and doesn't leave any kind of trouble for him. Us mere mortals can only aspire and aim towards that level of broness. The tragedy here is that Pwyll is so obscure. He should have gone down as the patron saint of the Bro Code for that alone.

Reason 3: he isn't an asshole to his wife, just a little clueless. Reason 4: he doesn't kill the guy who tries to steal his wife. Reason 5: he actually remains faithful to his wife.

As a native Welsh speaker, I’m really impressed at your attempts at pronunciation. Being from a different language family, it has several sounds that simply don’t exist in English. Here are my (completely unasked for) notes on pronouncing. Mabinogi was done well, except the ‘o’ in welsh is pronounced as a monophthong like in the word ‘raw’ in a standard (British) English accent. Pwyll is pronounced like the word ‘pull’ but with the ɬ sound. The ‘ll’ started edging towards a ‘sh’ sound, understandably, and thanks so much for giving it a go, because when people just pronounce it as it would be in English it sounds so strange. Arawn was well pronounced, but roll the ‘r’, only once (like a tap rather than a trill), and ‘w’ in Annwn is pronounced ‘oo’, so like ‘Anoon’. Hafgan was pretty much spot-on! Rhiannon was pretty well done, but the ‘h’ after an ‘r’ means that it has a little burst of air, which doesn’t happen in English, it’s an alveolar tap that is stopped by a burst of air. Otherwise perfect, as was gwawl (except that’s only one syllable). Clud isn’t pronounced ‘cleed’ as much as it’s pronounced ‘clid’. The cute sign in the back at 4:31 should be spelt ‘does dim unman i debyg i gartre. Teyrnon is pronounced more like ‘tay-r-non’. Pryderi was spot on, but make sure to roll both ‘r’s. Dyfed has emphasis on the first syllable rather than the second, but otherwise was good. Thanks for giving such a difficult language for an English speaker a try, and doing it so successfully. Also, I’ve never heard Welsh names pronounced by an American before. Da iawn, a Cymru am Byth!

If you banged someone without asking his Partner (yes, both Genders - same Rules; disturbing, I know.... *sigh *) beforehand, this was not ok. But, not because "having intercourse with someone married to another" rather than "not respecting the other one by not asking". "Sex" was something along "eating and drinking" and "Party hard" - and not too tight bound to the concept of marriage, which were focussed on the "supporting Role to each others Life" and "to be there to comfort them in Peril", so the practical and romantic Parts of a Relationship.

I love the picture of Rhiannon just casually holding the baby out in front of the window to shut the peasants up with one hand without even stopping reading her book. XD (I *KNEW* YOU WERE GONNA END WITH THAT SONG! :D)

I just wanted to say how Cool of a husband Pwyll was to Rhiannon when she was accused of eating their kid and how he called out the peoples BS when they wanted him to divorce her. (Also, screw those maids for lying)
@evilcommunistpicklerick31753 жыл бұрын
In a version that I have, the maids killed a recently born puppy and used the blood to smear on Rhiannon's face & the crib, and I believe put the bones in crib. Screw them to the deepest layer of Hell!!!

Holy crap! A Miscellaneous Myth that actually left me feeling happy inside?? I think it had to do with the fact that the women in the story were actually freaking respected lol

I'd say the Eros and Psyche Myth gets the happy feelings going pretty well too. But yeah, the attitude towards women in this one is pretty refreshing.
