Tynwald
The Tynwald ((マン島語:Tinvaal)), or more formally, the High Court of Tynwald ((マン島語:Ard-whaiyl Tinvaal)) is the legislature of the Isle of Man. It is claimed to be the oldest continuous parliamentary body in the world, consisting of two Houses: the directly elected House of Keys and the indirectly chosen Legislative Council.
The Houses sit jointly, on Tynwald Day at St John's for largely ceremonial purposes, and usually once a month in the Legislative Buildings in Douglas. Otherwise, the two Houses sit separately, with the House of Keys originating most legislation, and the Legislative Council acting as a revising chamber.
==Etymology==
The name Tynwald, like the Icelandic and Norwegian ''Tingvoll'', is derived from the Old Norse word meaning the meeting place of the assembly, the field (vǫllr→wald, cf. the Old English cognate weald) of the ''thing''.
