troyl Troyl is a colloquial Cornish word meaning a barn-dance or céilidh, a social evening of dance, music and song. == Etymology ==
Edward Lluyd (1660?-1709) knew the Cornish verb ''troillia'' - to twist, twirl, whirl, spin round.〔E. Lluyd, ''Archaeologica Britannica'' (Oxford, 1707)〕 Edward Veale of Pentire, Newquay used the noun ''troil'' in the 1880s to describe a Cornish céilidh in Newquay.〔Davey, M. ''Hengan'' (Dyllansow Truran, 1983) 51-53 & 57〕 Robert Morton Nance collected the noun ''troyl'' in the 1920s. He classified the word as a 'Cornish dialect survival', and knew the similar Welsh noun which has the same Brittonic root. "Troyll" appeared in Robert Morton Nance's 1938 Cornish English dictionary with the meanings - circuit, spiral, spin, turn and lathe.〔Nance, R. Morton (1990) ''A New Cornish Dictionary''. Redruth〕 Since the Cornish Dance Revival of the 1980s the noun ''Troyl'' has been consistently used to denote a Cornish céilidh.〔Davey, A. et al. (1992) ''Corollyn''. Truro〕
