Beginner's Welsh, Welsh with English Translations

Ydy, mae Japaneg yn anodd iawn. Dydy hi ddim yn defnyddio'r wyddor. Pam roedd dy frawd eisiau dysgu Japaneg?

Ti'n iawn, Siarls. Mae "yn ddweud" yn swnio'n ofnadwy! Ceisiais i ddweud "mae Learn Welsh yn ei ddweud."

---

Yes, Japanese is very difficult. It doesn't use the alphabet. Why did your brother want to learn Japanese?

You're right, Siarls. "yn ddweud" sounds awful! I tried to say "mae Learn Welsh yn ei ddweud."

O' diwedd! Mae taflen cerdd i Hen Wlad newydd gyrraedd heddiw. Mae hi'n swnio'n fendigedig! Pera i i fy mab wneud canu'r piano i mi bob dydd, fel arall wnaf i ddim swper i fe!

---

At last! A sheet music for Hen Wlad has just arrived today. It sounds wonderful! I'll make my son play the piano everyday for me, otherwise I won't make him supper!

Da iawn Gwen o lleiaf byddi di gwybod y geiriau i'r anthem, llawer o pobl Cymraeg, dydyn nhw ddim gwybod y geiriau.

Gest ti ennill y wobr am eich traethawd chi ar ol yn yr eisteddfod Japaneaidd ?

O' diwedd! dyn ni wedi cael rhai law dda yma ond dyn ni eisiau llawer mwy i llenwi'r argaeau.

Well done Gwen at least you will know the words to the anthem, a lot of welsh people they dont know the words.

Did you win a prize for your essay after in the japanese eisteddfod?

At last we have had some good rain here but we need a lot more to fill the dams.

Shwmae austaff. Dw i'n dwlu ar Hen Wlad. Byddwn i'n hoffi ganu gyda phawb yn y Stediwm Mileniwm rhyw ddiwrnod. Wn i ddim beth oedd y canlyniad o'r Eisteddfod Japan. Dydyn nhw ddim 'update' eu gwefan! Hwyl

Hi austaff. I love Hen Wlad. I'd like to sing it with everyone in the Millennium Stadium some day. I don't know the result of the Eisteddfod Japan. They don't update their website!

Ydy gyda dy fab ddiddordeb yn Gymraeg o gwbl Gwen? Falle y bydd e'n canu Hen Wlad a thi ac dych chi'n gallu ymarfer Cymraeg gyda'i gilydd bob dydd.

Does your son have an interest in Welsh at all Gwen? Maybe he will sing Hen Wlad with you and you can practice Welsh together every day.

Wela 3,170 golygon ar y trywydd hwn. Lle ydy'r cyfrannwyr i gyd? Pam ydy 'na ddim ond pedwar ohonom pryd mae'n amlwg fod llawer o ddarllenwyr eraill yn mwynhau'r trywydd?

I see 3,170 views on this thread. Where are all the contributors? Why are there only four of us when its obvious that alot of other readers enjoy the thread?

Siarls, dyma stomp fawr. Sut drwg yw hi lle wyt ti'n byw? Mae un fachgen bach wedi marw o achos ohoni hyd yma ac y mae hi wedi effeithio 160 o leill hefyd.

Siarls, this is a big mess. How bad is it where you live? One little boy has died because of it so far and it has affected 160 others too.

Antwn, does dim diddordeb dy fy mab mewn Cymraeg o gwbl. Mae e'n dysgu Spaeneg yn yr ysgol. Pêl-droed ydy ei nwyd nawr. Mae e'n canu Hen Wlad ar y piano bob dydd o leia. Gyda llaw, mae seineg ar y taflen cerdd ond mae e'n ofnadwy!

Wel, falle maen nhw'n rhy swil i bostio.

---

Antwn, my son has no interest in Welsh at all. He's learning Spanish at school. Football (soccer) is his passion now. At least he plays Hen Wlad on his piano everyday. By the way, there are phonetics on the sheet music but they're awful!

Maybe, they are too shy to post.

Gwen, Pryd dw i'n ennill y "Lottery" byddi i anfon a ti'r Stadiwm Mileniwm i weld i'r gem rugby ble byddan nhw canu'r mae Hen Wlad gyda nwyd

Gwen when I win the lottery I will send you to the Millenium Stadium to see a rugby game where they sing Hen Wlad with a passion

A phryd chi gyd yn dod i Gymru - bydda i'n dangos popeth o'n cwmpas!
Fi'n dysgu Hen Wlad ac erbyn y diwedd, mae pobl yn gallu ei chanu fel Cymry Cymraeg!

Peidiwch a^ phoeni amdana i, pawb. Fi'n oreit! Mae popeth yn f'ardal i yn iawn. 'Dyw'r orsaf betrol ddim yn beryglus a does dim E.coli yn f'ardal. Ond, mae'r Gwasanaeth Iechydol Gwladol (GIG) yn poeni am bird flu a maen nhw'n paratoi am ei gyrraedd yn barod.

And when you all come to Wales - I'll show you around! I teach Hen Wlad and by the time I've finished, people can sing it like Welsh natives!

Don't worry about me, everyone! I'm alright! Everything in my area is fine. The petrol station isn't dangerous and there's no E.coli in my area. But, the National Health Service (NHS) is worrying about bird flu and are already preparing for its arrival here.

Mae swyddogion wedi bod yn poeni am ffliw adar yma hefyd. Maen nhw'n credu y bydd gyda ni brechlynnau annigonol i'r bobl oll a allai fod yn heintiedig.

Officials have been worried about bird flu here too. They believe that we have insufficient vaccine for all the people which could be infected.

Wela dy bwynt Siarls.....edrychwch pawb:

Ti'n artist! Hyfryd! Wel, ro'n i'n arfer arlunio ond dim nawr. Dw i'n hoffi darllen. Dw i'n darllen pethau yn Gymraeg neu bethau am Gymru yn Saesneg. Bydda i'n ymarfer corff bob dydd gyda cerddoriaeth Gymreig (grwpiau gwerin o 70 ac 80au.) Dw i dim ond eisiau gwneud popeth yn Gymraeg cyn gymaint â phosib.

Hwyl

Hi austaff and everyone.

You, artist! Wonderful! I used to draw and paint but not now. I like reading. I read something in Welsh or something about Wales in English. I exercise with Welsh music (folk groups from 70s and 80s) everyday. I just want to do everything in Welsh as much as possible.

Alla i ddim lluniadu o gwbl yn anffodus ond dw i'n edmygu arlunwyr da

I can't draw at all unfortunately but I admire good artists.
