The Welsh people collectively, or the term for people of Welsh descent and heritage.
From Welsh 'Cymru' (Wales) and 'Cymry' (Welsh people), related to 'cwm' (valley), reflecting the valleys of Wales. The term has been used in English since medieval times to refer to the people of Wales.
The word 'Cymry' is special because it's one of the few cases where we use the indigenous name for a people in English rather than our own colonial name for them—it means Welsh people choose their own identity in our language.
