John Davey or Davy (1812–1891) was a Cornish farmer who was one of the last people with some traditional knowledge of the Cornish language. According to Henry Jenner, the level of his ability in the language is unclear, but was probably restricted to a few words and phrases. A song attributed to Davey's memory, the "Cranken Rhyme", is not known from any earlier source and is notable as possibly one of the last survivals of Cornish literary tradition.

  • John Davey o Davy (1812–1891) fou un pagès de Cornualla i una de les darreres persones que posseí coneixements tradicionals de la llengua còrnica. Segons l'especialista Henry Jenner, la seva perícia es limità probablement a unes quantes paraules i frases. No obstant, és gràcies a Davey que hom coneix la cançó anomenada Cranken Rhyme. Aquesta no apareix a cap text conegut, de manera que constitueix un dels últims exemples de la tradició literària còrnica. (ca)

  • John Davey (1812–1891) Kornuallesko baserritar bat izan zen, hau kornubiera hizkuntzaren ezagupena izan zuen azken pertsonatzat jo ohi da. Hizkuntza honetan zuen gaitasuna ez dago batere garbi, baina ziurrenik hainbat hitz eta esaldietara mugatuko zen. "Cranken Rhyme" deituriko bertsoak Daveyk buruz abestu ohi zituela aipatu ohi da.

Davey Kornuallesko Zennor parrokiako Boswednack herrixkan bizi izan zen, denboraldi batez Zennorren maisu gisa jardun zuen baserritarra izan zen. Uste denez kornubiera bere aitarengandik ikasi zuen. 1891an 79 urteko adinarekin zendu zen, bere jakintza berarekin bat eramanaz. (eu)
