How To Talk About Your Feelings In Welsh (South Wales)

[@banjowarrior365]

These videos are so helpful! diolch! I'm from Newcastle but my mam grew up near Fishguard, she would always ask us how we weree doing with "sut dych chi heddiw" when we were growing up!

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

That’s really nice to hear. Bringing a bit of Wales to Newcastle.

I've been using your podcast and duo lingo to help with learning Welsh. Do you have any recommendations for online news or radio broadcast in Welsh? When I get a bit further on I'll start trying to find some books to read. Thanks for all your effort in helping other people learn it's really appreciated 👍 diolch

[@SEEYAIAYE]

Duolingo is okay for repetition and casually starting to learn a language but there's far better resources out there. Duo helps but I'm still completely lost listening to BBC Radio Cymru or any podcast where they speak fluently, maybe picking up 1-2 words every sentence. Teach Yourself Welsh is a great book if you want to get serious about learning Cymraeg. Remember: Dyfal donc a dyr y garreg and good luck!

Dw i'n hapus diolch for teaching me and other people :D

“Trist” is from Latin “trīstis”. Interesting example of Latin influence on Welsh!

[@TerencePetersenAjbro]

Trist means sad in Spanish too. Interestingly, ladron is the same in Welsh and Spanish, meaning thieves. I find my knowledge of Spanish is a very useful in learning Welsh.

[@portishphonic]

@@user-zu1py7kv2q Trist in Romanian as well, pronounced the same.

[@MsZoeSings]

@@TerencePetersenAjbro I learned French and there's a huge crossover there too.

[@snowiejames]

I've been pronouncing sut wrong! I was talk it was pronounced like 'sit'. thanks for that!

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

You’re not pronouncing it wrong. It’s pronounced ‘Sit’ in North Wales but we pronounce it as ‘should’ in South Wales. I’m bringing out the North Wales version of this video in a couple of weeks and you’ll see me pronounce the word in that video the same way you pronounce it.

[@MsZoeSings]

I was pronouncing it 'soot' and I stand corrected (I have S Welsh roots). Diolch Jason x

[@sionhoffite]

Hi! First off all thanks for your videos, they are very helpful and you are a good teacher! However, I have a question. You pronounce "S" in word "Sut" and "Sutmae" as a "Sh" sound. But in a few other resources I heard it's beeng pronounce as just "S" sound. Is there a reason for that? Or correct way? Or just deferent dialects?

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

It’s to do with dialect. In North Wales the S in Sut and Sutmae are pronounced with a hard S. The Sh sound for S is heard more in South Wales.

[@jancronin1078]

Diolch Jason.

[@RRTNZ]

Are you bein' funny ? Welsh people do not keep feelings to ourselves, especially pan gwylio'r rygbi ! Dyma Ioan Gruffud yn cadw ei teimladau i ei hun kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnjQgJSsf5amaq8

Trugarez deoc’h. Diolch yn fawr.

[@allenjenkins7947]

Since when did Celtic males (any nationality) ever talk about their feelings?

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

That’s why I teach the word Iawn (Ok/alright) in this lesson. That is what most of us Welsh men say when asked how we are. If we’re feeling really emotional we might add a grunt before saying iawn/ok. 😂
