Download the latest version from https://extensions.libreoffice.org/en/extensions/show/27374 or https://github.com/fin-w/LibreOffice-Geiriadur-Cymraeg-Welsh-Dictionary and open the file with LibreOffice to install. Select "Welsh" as the document language in LibreOffice to use this extension for spellchecking.

This extension is based on Hunspell dictionary data developed by Bangor University. Numerous additional words are added to this extension's data with each new version, but through additional affixing rules, the total file size of the dictionary has been reduced.

WARN and FORBIDWARN

I can see that these 2 lines are used in the affix file.

WARN !
FORBIDWARN

And used in the corpus like this...

adlamu/H
adlamych/H!

But it is also possible to use this option...

FORBIDDENWORD !

Is it any different than the WARN parameter?

words are in dictionary but aren't registered as correct

perhaps due to BREAK - some compound hyphen-delimited words are considered incorrect because part of the compound is not in the dictionary, despite the full compound word existing

a few examples
adfyw-wyr gwrth-heintwyr llawr-sgleinwyr ôl-fodernwyr tâp-yrrwyr tra-chywasgwyr uwch-gyfarwyddwyr gwrth-heintiwr tra-chywasgwr uwch-gyfarwyddwr

if the compound parts are added then the compound itself should register as correct, but will be redundant
if the compound, but not the compound parts, are wanted, then the BREAK - needs to be changed
