obeutu

• biti, boiti, bwti, bwyti, byti, bythdi

From o (“of, from”) +‎ peutu (“every side”); the second element is related to the historical pronoun beu- (“every”) (as in beunydd (“everyday”), Breton bemdez (“every day”); see pob (“each, every”)), but the entire word was probably influenced by English about.[1]
