 Abstract:
 "There are strong similarities between phrasal compounds in Welsh and ordinary NPs, but they also differ from each other in a number of ways. This paper describes these similarities and differences, and explores in theory-neutral terms their implications for the formal grammatical description of Welsh."

Les composés en question incluent les structures non-compositionnelles pour les noms de plantes, comme celui de la ficaire: llygad Ebrill, /(the) eye (of) April/, 'lesser celandine'.
