Medical terminology in Welsh

The best place to find Welsh translations of medical terms is the “Porth Termau Cenedlaethol Cymru” – Wales’ national terminology portal.

This can be found at termau.cymru

It’s really simple to use – type in the term you want to translate (from English to Welsh OR from Welsh to English) and the options will appear on the screen;
