Thanks Child of the 7th Age!

I'm not sure if lembs is actually a Cornish word. Like you, I can't find it in any of the on-line Cornish dictionaries. Perhaps it's a long-out-of-use English word.

My mother's family is from Cornwall. I'll be visiting my relatives there in the spring - first time for me. I'll ask them about the word.

Rydhsys rag Kernow lemmyn. Free Cornwall Now.
