Llongyfarchiadau i’r Athro Ann Parry Owen ar gael ei hurddo i’r Orsedd heddiw. Yn ogystal ag arwain timoedd ymchwil yn y Ganolfan, bu’n gyfrifol am feithrin ysgolheigion ifanc a thrwy hynny gyfrannu’n sylweddol at ddatblygiad y Gymraeg fel disgyblaeth academaidd. @Collen105

Happy #FirstFascicleDay! In fact it's the 140th anniversary of the publication of the first fascicle of the #OED. (I'm looking forward to my traditional occupation of correcting (some of) those who tweet about it in 3 days' time.)
