Today is #internationalasexualityday - asexual in Welsh is 'anrhywiol' and was first used for sexuality in Welsh in 1986.

There is one other source for the  term asexual in Welsh. The medical journal from 1986 is the earliest known usage of ‘anrhywiol’ as a human sexuality term in Welsh, but it also appears 6 years later in the 1992 edition of the Hippocrene Standard Dictionary – Welsh-English English-Welsh by H. Meurig Evans. 

Since then it has seen a steady increase in usage and is being included in more and more Welsh language LGBT+ media.
