And so is Wenedyk (99% of the time, at least). When I use the English
version, Venedic, is it mostly as an adjective referring to the
community of speakers. Also, in the construction "the XXX language" I
rather use the English version.

The English for Brithenig is "Welsh"? Gosh, didn't even know that! So
what are "Cambrian", "Kemrese", etc.?
