    Welsh for microwave is microdon. “Popty-ping” is an urban myth.https://twitter.com/paulwaugh/status/1206650543927681026 …

        Don't fully despair, it's not a myth without foundation. "Popty" is the word for oven, so if you had a normal kitchen, you might refer to "popty poeth" (the oven that gets hot) and "popty ping" (the oven that goes ping). It's like calling water "corporation pop".

        Easy mistake. In some parts of North Wales the Tory Party is known as Plaid Cont.

        It's technically a slang phrase, surely?

        Amongst a minority of Welsh speakers in South Wales it is. I don’t think anyone in North Wales uses it.

        'Pob ty' was an old term for a communal oven at the end of a row of cottages (= 'the house for all') hence the migration to popty. But it's alleged that someone's Nan added the ping. But Dawn is correct.
