@llamasoft_ox Fi hefyd yw . Hoffwn i gyhoeddi mwy yma, ond dw i ddim yn siŵr eto am beth! Felly, ar hyn o bryd dwi'n postio llawer o lol (?nonsens) yn , a gobeithio bydd rhywun yn cywiro fy nghamgymeriadau... Dal ati!

Yn ôl i'r swyddfa heddiw. Dw i'n gallu gweithio gartref ond roeddwn i eisiau bod yn gymdeithasol. Ond... mae'n dawel yma hefyd! (Mae annwyd arnyn llawer o phobl.)

Back to the office today. I could work from home but I wanted to catch up with people. Turns out, it's quiet here too! (A few are off with colds.)

Ah well. Change of scenery at least. (How would you express the same sentiment in #Welsh?)

I know a little bit of #Welsh, and I'd like to know a little bit more, so every now and again I might post here yn #Cymraeg.

If you speak it, please engage with those posts, because it means I get to practise. If not, don't panic, I'll probably attach some images as well! That way there's something for you too. (This should also be useful for learners, who might infer the context from pictures.)

Dysgwyr! Beth ydy camgymeriad ti'n wastad wneud?

I fi: os dw i eisiau dweud "she doesn't" or "isn't" neu rhywbeth, dw i'n wastad dechrau "Mae hi..." cyn cywiro fy hun i dweud "Dydy hi ddim..."

Learners! What mistake do you keep making?

For me: if I want to say "she doesn't" or "isn't" or something, I always start "She does..." before correcting myself to say "She doesn't..."

This morning’s musing on by this confused - what is up with the number three? Duo is little help with explanations as to why three is tri, tair and dair. The same case could be made for pedwar and all its forms.

This tŵt brought to you by four desks, six farmers and the number thirty-three 🙈

@fforiwr I do know the answer to this one! Either "pawb" or "bawb" is fine, but in this case it's not a N/S difference. The soft mutation of "pawb" to "bawb" when addressing people is what I believe is called the vocative. It's just a little change to indicate that you are directly addressing people.

I'm Stu from Cardiff. I'm a runner, a quizzer, a judoka and a junior parkrun run director. I've been a Welsh speaker for over ten years and still consider myself a learner.

I don't like cheese. No, really. Not even Wensleydale.
