@@potatogodwarriorguy2910 Me saying it was incorrect was mostly hyperbolic for the sake of making an entertaining video There are parts which are just annoying about what Duolingo was teaching (I have been thinking of making a follow up to explain some of these) but it was mostly South Wales Welsh in the video, but I did since find out the course also explains North Wales Welsh but it has it's own issues too unfortunately

Depends on formality, but you'd write the second one as "Ydych chi'n hoffi siocled?" regardless of how it's spoken "Wyt ti'n" would be used for singular / informal "Ydych chi'n" for plural / formal

I think I read there's 2 endings to the game. May do the other ending on stream at some point but no immediate plans right now 🙂 Glad you enjoyed the series though and be sure to stick around for other games I play on the channel, hoping to start Outlast Trials soon-ish 😊

I have been to South Wales a few times and I think the dialect itself is wonderful, Duolingo really doesn't do it justice. But this was just a fun little video I made - it's a highly exaggerated video because that's what the InstaShiz series is about. I don't actually believe that South Walian Welsh is incorrect Welsh. There's a few things about it I'm not a personal fan of (the "gyda" stuff being one of them), but broadly speaking I think it's a very nice dialect overall 🙂

Aye it was quite difficult to solve some of the puzzles. I think in some cases I had to look up the solutions on KZbin myself. Good premise but not without it's issues 🙂 Glad to see you're enjoying the videos too and that they're helpful for your own playthrough 🙂

If memory serves, you shake the controller downwards 🙂 the action to do so should appear on the screen when you come to the end of the monkey bars

Ye tht is another issue that's present with the Welsh course on Duolingo. It isn't Argentinian Welsh (from my understanding, it's based on the Welsh Government's "Dysgu Cymraeg" framework), but what I think it's more like is that Duolingo is teaching the spoken Welsh as a written language If you spoke the way Duolingo teaches, then you might actually get by - although I'm still not a fan of the sentence structures - but you wouldn't write sentences in this way

Thanks for the nice comment :) glad to hear you've resubscribed too. Good luck with your exams and hope you enjoy the new series

'ydw' is yes I am, 'dych' is you are.

i love your welsh accent!

I will be revisiting it sometime soon hopefully for a follow up video to also explain some of my comments in a less satirical sense but also to see if there have been any improvements to it. Although not being able to select between north and south is unfortunate (although in the learning material prior to the tests it does go over both from memory)

Is Welsh two languages or one as the way things sound there needs to be an accepted standardised Welsh for learning, News etc.

@@aldozilli1293 It's one language, but it has regional variations (very much like any language does) For the most part, Welsh that is taught in schools is pretty standardised, with any particular variations typically being taught by parents or later on. The regional variations just come naturally

@@InstaSim6 Saesneg dw i, ond dw i'n siarad Cymraeg efo Duolingo! Ma'en bwysig dysgu Cymraeg beth'r pobl hen a hwntw use a cofio the differences. Sorry probably sounds awful but didn't want to look at a translator. Please feel free to correct me!

Well spotted :) Thank you for letting me know. Have now sorted it

Much of the comments I made in the video are exaggerated, it's part of a series where the content is generally more fast-paced and exaggerated. I'm not actually trying to claim that any one dialect of Welsh is more correct than the other As I mentioned in the last part of the video, there is one specific qualm I have about South Walian Welsh and it's the use of "gyda" in a particular context, but that is really the only genuine qualm I expressed in this video North Wales isn't the only dialect, nor do I want it to be. We have our own issues such as the correct word for cake (I firmly stand in the "Teisen" column in that one which I'm aware many people disagree with). How language is spoken across different parts of the country is honestly fascinating to me. This video was purely made for entertainment

The written "A ydych" as I mentioned in the video is just slightly more formal. It all depends on context. You can prefix "A" in front of most question, such as "A fedrwch chi" for "Can you", "A hoffwch chi" for "Would you like", etc. They all work with or without the A at the beginning :) In an informal setting you can mix the sentence structures around like Duolingo has, but it's not a particularly common way of using "Ydych" from personal experience.

there's more than one way of saying 'Are you a school nurse?' This guy didn't realize that and was far too prescriptive, hence all of the negative comments. Welsh translators are only as good as the people who have uploaded the content, and don't necessarily cope with context.

'Nyrs ysgol (y)dych chi?' is a perfectly correct way (but not the only way) of asking 'Are you a school nurse?' I taught for 30+ years in Welsh medium schools so I haven't needed GoogleTranslate to say this.

​@@davythfear1582Diolch yn fawr i'r adborth.(Not Google translate). Love this language. I intended to do Spanish at the same time but Cymraeg was more interesting so I dropped the Spanish.😊

@davythfear1582 Diolch am y mewnbwn.(Sorry, avoiding Google translate so that may be wrong). Dw'n dysgu Cymraeg ar hyn o bryd felly fy Cymraeg yn ddim da.🤔

In fairness this is a dialect thing, if you're writing it out as a sentence you'd still use "Sut ydych chi" (depending on context) even if it's pronounced slightly differently depending on locality. I say "dach" when speaking but always write it as "ydych".

I'm not sure where you're getting the Dwi / Dwi'n thing from, but it depends on context. Dwi'n is just the shorthand for Dwi yn (Which is also the shorthand for Rydw i yn). You could say "Dwi'n iawn" but you wouldn't say "Dwi'n wedi blino"

​@@InstaSim6 Tired Sacri is best Sacri. What I meant was Ydw i and Dw i. Don't trust me on anything though. I barely know Welsh as a Southerner.

​@@InstaSim6 Ooookay so 6 months later, I've just realised I say more north things than the south ways. I say teisen not cacen, I also say ydy as yd"i" which, according to wiktionary, is north welsh. Also, I now know how 'n works and that it causes a mutation (da -> mae'n dda).

@@Sacroooooooooooooooooooooooooo I used to help someone from Wrexham with Welsh lessons and I realised that the Teisen/Cacen debate is more a West-East difference than a North-South difference For example, I come from Anglesey and say Teisen for cake, but when I moved to Wrexham I realised people here use Cacen instead (It was a big debate between myself and the friend I helped teach Welsh lessons with). Although a friend of mine from Gwynedd also says Cacen so the debate is wider than I thought, but I'm glad to see someone outside Anglesey uses what I consider to be the correct Welsh word for cake 😛 I know my video comes across a little picky and condescending, but there's no real right way to speak Welsh. There's things about the Duolingo course that does irk me quite a bit, such as the sentence structures and the way it teaches the use of "gyda", but otherwise it can at least help someone to get by Yes, 'n causes a soft mutation (sometimes, I think. When I use Cysill to proof-read Welsh text, it sometimes moans about mutating after 'n). Mutations can be a little confusing sometimes, even for a fluent speaker, so don't worry if you don't quite get it 100% 🙂

Contrary to how my video is presented (baring in mind this is part of a series where I overly exaggerate things) I'm not saying people shouldn't use Duolingo but from my experience and later reading into it after making the video, it works well as a supplement My recommendation will always be to find someone locally who teaches Welsh as most apps which teach the basics tend to miss out quite a bit of the nuances of the language as well as they teach a more generic version of Welsh which may differ to the various regional dialects depending on where you live. Whilst Duolingo does have North and South Wales Welsh in the Welsh course, regional differences from different parts of Wales are understandably missed as there's various different ways people communicate with each other in different parts of Wales It's not to say that people shouldn't use the app, because there is a lot of useful information on it, but I recommend treading carefully as something it teaches may not necessarily be what people you speak to use regularly, but I also suggest using what you have learned on Duolingo in conversation with others (if that's a possibility for you) and from that people can guide you

Peidiwch â phoeni.Mae Dualingo dal yn dda.Translate: Don't worry. Dualingo is still good. I may have got that wrong but I've been using Dualingo for nearly a year now.I just recently learned the command & plural forms such as 'Peidiwch' in the above sentence for Don't(paid). Don't give up! They say Welsh takes about 1040 hours to learn.Thats nearly 3 times more hours than Spanish and twice as much as German. Celtic languages are notoriously difficult but Chinese, Japanese and Arabic take twice as long,2200 hours.If you give up on this language you will surely find excuses to give up other languages. So if by chance you read this cje24576 don't give up. Its a real buzz when you listen to BBC Cymru and understand what they are saying.They use a lot of time words like wythnos,echdoe,yfory and heddiw. And when they talk about rugby you hear words like 'chwarae' and °goll' 😆👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

That'd be amazing 😅

U supposedly unlock a map actually

I find this comment vert heartwarming 😛
