prisio

Welsh

Etymology

From pris (“price”) +‎ -io.

Verb

prisio (first-person singular present prisiaf)(transitive)

1. to prize, to value
   • 2013 September 2, Glyn Griffiths, “Can mlwyddiant a hanner o reolau pêl-droed”, in BBC Blogiau‎, Ar y Marc:

     Mae'r copi gwreiddiol wedi ei brisio am £2.5 miliwn - swm enfawr ond fyddai hyn ddim hyd yn oed yn eich galluogi i brynu cefnwr i'ch tîm y dyddiau yma!

     The original copy has been valued at £2.5 million--an enormous sum but this wouldn't even allow you to buy a fullback for your team these days!

2. to price
