  • Yn Lhaihder (Manx: [ən ˈlʲaɪdðəɾ], "The Reader") is an official who takes part in the annual Tynwald Day ceremony at St John's, Isle of Man. After the Coroner of Glenfaba "fences the Court" (brings the Court to order) in English, Yn Lhaihder repeats the same declaration in Manx. The role of Yn Lhaihder is central to reaffirming the Manx identity of the proceedings of Tynwald Day. The role of the Lhaihder has varied somewhat since it was instituted. The First Deemster proclaims the laws and a brief summary of them in English, and the Second Deemster then does so in Manx. Under the Promulgation Act 1988, a summary of each law, as described above, must be read out in both languages within 18 months of it being passed. There is no mention of who should perform this function. (en)
