A welshism is a phrase used particularly by welsh people that can mean both everything and nothing in most circumstances. A welshism may also be a form of a word in the english language that has been bastardised through a blend of welsh language and accent. Such phrases are believed to be meaningless, but among Welsh people can save time when talking of potentially drawn out matters of domestic and vocational concerns.
> I don't understand Welshisms, they don't mean anything
