What is a "Witch" in Welsh? | Welsh Witchcraft Terminology 1

Ask any Welsh speaker today what the modern Welsh word for a Witch is, and they'll tell you it's "gwrach"...but does that word really fit the needs of a modern day magical practitioner? Where does that word come from? Are there better alternatives? We explore that very topic in today's video!
