Best Welsh words and phrases to help you get by if you don’t know the language yet

In todays video we take a look at a list from ‘Wales online’ called ‘The top Welsh words and phrases to help you get by if you don’t know the language yet’. I teach the words in the list (and some words that I think are even more useful than the ones suggested in the list 😉).

Jason, thank you so much for making these videos and putting your heart and soul into educating everyone on such a wonderful language and rich culture!

[@magicdashcams506]

im showing my staff why im hard to understand, thanks to your videos. love it, keep going.

[@andrewpickering7248]

I love the Welsh language and been learning it for the past 4 years and you have definitely helped me with my quest 😁👍

[@jeremygutridge2078]

I love your content and looking for more in the future

[@nancya.nelson5810]

What word do the Welsh use when they answer the phone? The Italians say "pronto" for example. Your show is helpful!

[@ruthiemuntean7407]

Thank you for your passion and dedication to teaching Welsh! Your videos bring me much serotonin as well as much knowledge!

[@lesn4528]

Thank you Jason. This has also cleared up a query I had about the pronounciation of ga i. Duolingo pronounces it to sound like guy not ga-ee, which confused me.

I have some welsh heritage that’s why I subbed to your channel to learn the language 😊

[@simondore5268]

I have Welsh speaking friends and, wanted to surprise, and flatter them! Thanks Jason...'good job! Simon

[@cipherx6334]

Really useful information, diolch!

[@aprilmadsen2167]

Dal ati, Jason! Diolch yn fawr!

[@jimbobur]

The more I learn Welsh the more unexpected little similarities with Spanish I come across 🙂 "Trist" - "triste" (sad) "Dim brys" - "Sin prisa" (literally "without rush/hurry")

[@jimbobur]

Another one (albeit maybe less unexpected given their history) was some of the days of the week Dydd Llun -- lunes Dydd Mawrth -- martes Dydd Mercher -- miércoles Dydd Iau -- jueves (not so similar) Dydd Gwener -- viernes (maybe a bit more similar than Thursday) Dydd Sadwrn -- sábado Dydd Sul -- domingo (quite different here too)

This is most helpful

[@jeffreyhoward6319]

Concerning Dw i'n. How do you differentiate between 'doing' (I do) and 'being'(I am) ?

[@lindsayheyes925]

Wonderful, much more the sort of language I'd actually use.

[@oceanwanderer8065]

Nice one again Jason.

[@judy9157]

Thanks for the useful phrases. Very helpful.

[@reginamaruta8276]

Shwmae Jason, Iam really enjoying this. Diolch fawr lawn.

[@dirtylittlerockstar]

Probably not handy to know how to ask questions when you don't yet understand the reply! Wales Online need to get in touch with you for articles about the Welsh language. That list looks like no thought was put into it really. I'm keeping at learning Welsh even though learning any new thing is a slower process after a certain age 😉 I love to listen to new Welsh bands on BBC Radio Wales because it's a thrill to be able to piece together the meaning. Talk shows on Radio Cymru are more difficult because of the speed, but I find I can pick out more words as I learn them, so DIOLCH for helping me on my way. x

[@withgoddess]

Bye.

[@FrancescaHughes36]

"Wyt ti eisiau" often sounds more like t'isio (tee-sho) when it's said in the north.

[@johnsoper6700]

Da iawn ti, dal ati! Achos dwi'n meddwl bod y Cymraeg yn ddiddorol iawn! Diolch yn fawr iawn I chi. Hwyl am y tro nesa. Dymuniadau gorau John

[@flyagaric1607]

Im so annoyed they taught us french in school instead of welsh

[@griffgriffiths9050]

French was taught at my school if you were caught speaking Welsh you were given the cane.

[@RRTNZ]

Defnyddiol iawn.

[@DMDBOTH]

ProNUNciation NOT ProNOUNciation in English!
