Usage notes[edit]
- Being derived from a proper name, Zwinglïaeth does not have its spelling adapted to typical Welsh orthographic conventions, which do not use the letter z. See also Kantiaeth (“Kantianism”).
- Like many other unnaturalised nouns recently derived from other languages, Zwinglïaeth does not undergo initial mutation.
