"siswrn" meaning in Welsh

See siswrn in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈsɪsʊrn/, /ˈsɪʃʊn/ [South-Wales, also, colloquial], /ˈʃɪʃʊn/ [South-Wales, also, colloquial] Forms: sisyrnau [plural], siswrnau [plural], siswrns [plural]
Etymology: From Middle English sisours, from Old French cisoires. The -n is of unclear origin; perhaps the word is from a dialect of Middle English in which the plural suffix -en predominated over -s. At any rate, its use in this Welsh word is paralleled by other loanwords like masarn (“maple”) (from Old French masre), miswrn (“visor”), and pinsiwrn (“pincers”).
