[edit]Etymology 1
[edit](This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.)
According to the Geiriadur Prifysgol Cymru, imitative of a bird's call.[1] Possibly from Proto-Indo-European *(s)ping- (“small bird, sparrow”), the source of English finch, however the exception to the general Celtic loss of Proto-Indo-European *p would need special explanation.
Noun
[edit]pinc f or m (plural pincod)
Etymology 2
[edit]Borrowed from English pink.[1]
Noun
[edit]pinc m (plural pincs)
Adjective
[edit]pinc (feminine singular pinc, plural pinc, equative pinced, comparative pincach, superlative pincaf)
