Katc is right of course - up to a point anyway. The proper spelling for a bunch of Corgis is Corgwn. But this is Welsh and the Poms (English) are forever changing Welsh, Irish and Scottish words to suit themselves - thus you get Corgwyn. Americans are as bad, and alter Welsh, Irish, Scottish AND ENGLISH words and any other country, in similar vein to that of the English.

When the dictionary recognises WWCW then I'll sit up and take notice . It stands for the Wellington Welsh Corgi Walking Group. We now are 24 Corgis strong and 15 families - and the prospect for more is good..
