Learning Welsh using a new language hack, ‘625 words in your target language’. Part 1 - Animals

[@gwilwilliams5831]

It’s true what you say Jason. When I listen to Radio Cymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 and hear a new Welsh word I understand I get really excited. Very enjoyable and inspirational. Keep up the good work.

[@saneminotaur]

I find it super helpful to have the words given an association, so I really appreciate the videos I've seen so far from the channel. And I don't feel overwhelmed with too much info at once, so thank you for making these videos.

[@crismcdonough2804]

Your living room looks so cozy.

[@marthanichols8536]

What a lovely room! I would enjoy learning the names of furniture, household items, fireplace terms, etc. ❤

[@8.4Media]

Please continue with this series, it is really helpful and you are great at explaining and pronouncing the welsh words☺️

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

Hi! I will be continuing the series. I’ve already recorded the second part and I’m going to start editing it this evening.

[@lauragraves4342]

It is such a cool, underrated, and beautiful sounding language. If I ever have any children, I would love to teach it to them. Much love from Oklahoma. 💟

[@HeatherDeweyPettet]

I love your background… all the antiques!

[@anbheansachuisneoir9233]

What a great idea for a series of videos. Hopefully it'll be a boost to my vocabulary. Diolch!

[@witwaltz]

Thank you so much! I've been trying to build out this exact list, but struggle with pronunciation.

[@gedhuffadine1873]

Jason your house looks interesting! you have a nice room with nice things!

[@Onetruegracie]

This is so useful! Diolch! I love how cow sounds the same as saying book in a scouse accent :D

[@johnnyawful509]

Sutmae Jason from Melbourne! After many years attempting to learn the language of my ancestors I’m finally making progress with your enjoyable podcasts.I come of a Welsh family and my Dad was Welsh but I was born over the border in Cheshire ! My Grandad was a founder of the Transport and General Workers Union in North East Wales and served as a Labour Councillor for many years for Pen y Ffordd in Flintshire. He was a friend and close colleague of Huw T Edwards who was highly influential in union Labour and Plaid Cymru circles. Huw T was also a Bard of The Goresedd. It’s one of my ambitions to read his autobiography “Tros y Tresi” in its original Welsh! Best wishes John Ithell

[@polyphant]

Absolutely brilliant! Da iawn!! I’ll know hopefully know these forever now :)

[@KenMorrispsychicchoiceradio2]

Loving these video's so mush passion is put into them, the wantingness to teach Welsh is strongly felt.

[@Hanes_Cymru-742h]

I can't help but notice that Your home is incredibly Welsh!

[@stevenodonnell2446]

Thanks for the very useful video BUT - How could you not include 'sheep' in your list? 😆

[@Conor_Rafferty]

Please look into the comprehensible input concept.

[@adrianjones5148]

Thank for the videos I've been trying to learn some Welsh for a long time but didn't know where to start.

[@ashleymoss7132]

Just found your videos, so excited to start watching them and learning the Welsh language of my ancestors.

[@dogscats6489]

Thank you for your tips. You present in a really easy to learn style. I have welsh roots and 4I want to try and learn the national anthem. But by looking at your channel I've learned a bunch of other words and about pronunciation. I'm now very keen to learn some more.

[@maryann3671]

I’m caught up by your enthusiasm!

[@juanman75]

I've just started to try and learn some Welsh and I've found your videos very helpful. 👍

[@crwydryn]

Thanks again Jason. A big thumbs up!

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

👍

[@fr33f4l4st1ne]

Diolch yn fawr iawn! (a big thank you!)

[@lisamilsom5037]

This is a great video diolch!

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

Glad you think so!

[@msbeaverhausen7226]

That was a great video!! I knew most of the words, it is the tenses that I really struggle with. I think that I would be able to navigate a menu or a simple tourist brochure, but to speak Welsh would be such a struggle.

[@harmonicresonanceproject]

This is super helpful!

[@swhite5840]

Lovely home in the background! Thanks for a really useful podcast, just subscribed.

[@paul-francislaw9774]

Wonderful as always! Thank you so much.

[@IainMcGirr]

Man I am Irish Go raibh maith agat ma chara. .but Welsh is on my list. .Such a brilliant language with as much ancient tales as us Irish massive respect my fellow Celt .. Truly meant

[@ivorwm2291]

Great video. Thanks

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

Glad you liked it!

[@dianeiles6348]

Thank you. This was so helpful! Great teaching!

[@jc-motivacaodiaria]

Gostei muito

[@WordSpinner]

This is working well for me -- thank you!

[@brinjoness3386]

Dioch yn fawr. My first welsh language lesson since I was 8.

[@thornhillplumbing]

Really enjoyed this video , are you doing more of this series? Diolch yn fawr

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

Hi! Part 2 is already out and is about words related to transport. I’ve recorded Part 3 and it’s the next video on my list to edit, so it should be out soon.

[@bigears5809]

When I try to remember cow, I just think of a cow from liverpool reading a book.

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

🐄🏘📚😀

[@thepeanutgallery1699]

I like the background in this one. 🙂

[@lindsayheyes925]

The seagulls at Bari are always a-darin' to steal your chips.

[@jandunn169]

Diolch yn fawr!!! Always good fun.....

[@tonybell7267]

Dw I dysgy cymraig , diolch am video. Its useful to hear someone else pronouncing words , helps me refocus on the pronunciation. Diolch .

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

Glad you’re finding the video useful.

[@frankhooper7871]

It would have been nice if you'd mentioned the genders of the words, so we knew whether or not to mutate (when appropriate)

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

That’s an excellent idea. Diolch! I’ll start doing that in my next video.

[@catherinestrong8313]

Loved this one! I can now read my kids the animals book in Welsh without murdering it 😆

[@jamesmoon6958]

This is quite similar to the subject lessons in Duolingo

[@kimberleydavies2448]

So much better than Duolingo!!

[@Hanes_Cymru-742h]

Underrated and excellent teacher Sir! DIOLCH YN FAWR

[@AbrahamLure]

Do you have a video on y pronunciation? I'm using Duolingo but it feels like I'm never quite understanding when the y sounds different

[@missbirdsmiles5387]

Cow sound like the scouse for book

[@janhughes7786]

😂

[@becky2235]

Diolch much easier than just memorizing translations

[@fishinaboxful]

One simple thing every welsh language misses IS the correct prononciation for thé welsh word for colours, everyone teaches the undividual colours but doesn't actually tell you thé welsh word clearly for "colours"... Even the kids song garbles the word in the song , so simple so frustrating

[@NoahNobody]

It's weird how Welsh sounds a bit like Scouse. Like "cow" is exactly how you pronounce "book" in Scouse.

[@StillAliveAndKicking_]

A lot of Welsh speakers moved to Liverpool to work, so there will be influences.

[@gwilwilliams5831]

I know two German words for apricots: Marillen and Aprikosen. Aaargh! I should be learning two Welsh words.

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

Here’s a useful Welsh word to learn. Bricyllen. And it has nothing to do with apricots. Honest!😉

[@iaincphotography6051]

Diolch yn fawr.

[@maxmatthews2463]

I just wanna learn words from the year 685.

[@LearnWelshPodcast]

Don’t we all!

[@philvanderlaan5942]

Nothing to do with this video, but I have been watching the channel for quite some time now . As a history buf It just a occurred to me to wonder if there were any monuments to the great welsh secret agent Glyndwr Michael in Wales. And how much resentment is there about how MI-5 body snatched him ?

[@andrewwhelan7311]

Diolch.LOL Heddwch/ Peace.
