Les, of course, recognized this word as a Welsh borrowing, although he played along and gave a false definition. The real definition is "a community or gathering of modern bards," and comes from the Welsh word for throne. I like role-playing games, such as Dungeons and Dragons, so I have attended a gorsedd in character.

 

I may have to read the Gor books Douglas mentioned some day; I have not seen those. If they are that sexist, though, I may get angry!

 

Politically, I want to pick a different answer, as Sophia picked mine earlier, but I really have to give this to Les/Idthemagicman. But I really enjoyed seeing the answers you came up with, and there were no stinkers in the lot. Great work everyone!
