Word of the Day – Hwyl

By October 13, 2016Word of the Day

Hwyl (noun) (Welsh)

hoi-ul

A stirring feeling of emotional motivation and energy.

A Welsh one today, from my homeland. Welsh words often have cross meanings, and hwyl is also one of the many ways to say goodbye.

Example sentences

“You can feel the hwyl emanating from them, it’s inspiring.”

“She came in filled with hwyl.”
