Goferydd

Goferydd (plural: Goferyddion) is a Welsh noun that translates to "Gopher" in English. More specifically, it refers to a person who performs errands or menial tasks, typically a junior employee or assistant. The term carries connotations of someone who "goes for" things, reflecting their role in fetching items or completing simple jobs for those in more senior positions. The word stems from the English word "gofer," anglicized and then adapted into Welsh morphology. While the role and function remain the same as its English equivalent, the spelling and pronunciation reflect the linguistic rules and patterns of the Welsh language.
