Etymology: < Welsh pryddest (12th cent., originally as †prydest ) < prydu to compose poetry (12th cent.; < pryd appearance, countenance, image, likeness, beauty, cognate with Early Irish cruth form, appearance, beauty (Irish cruth ), creth poetry < a suffixed form of the Indo-European base of Sanskrit kṛ- to do, make, perform, accomplish: see karma n.) + -est, of unknown origin (also found, apparently independently, in gloddest feast, carousal, bloddest rejoicing, applause).The -dd- (/ð/) in the current Welsh form (in use since the 17th cent.) may result from a misunderstanding of the -d- in medieval orthography, where it could represent both /d/ and /ð/, or it may have developed by analogy with gloddest, bloddest (see above). The plural form pryddestau is after the Welsh plural.

In Welsh poetry: a long poem in free metre.
