I think in a number of the examples, the phrase come from how it would be constructed in Welsh. It's leaked into the local English dialect and become so common that now even non-Welsh-speaking people just use it naturally without being aware of it's origin.

Interestingly, I’ve heard a lot of these - or variations of them - here in America. It may be because my mother’s family is of Welsh descent or because the area of Central New York State where I grew up is filled with descendants of Welsh immigrants who came here in the 1800s. Whatever the reason, most of these were familiar or made complete sense to me.

Where to is it is commonly said as "where's it to?" With reference to the "What you doing?" I've lived in the Rhondda Valleys all my life and here is something that happens here. When asked a question to which the answer is obvious, we still answer. So for example, lets say I'm washing the car out the front, Kevin walks up the street and says "allright Jeff, what you doing then?" and dammit I actually answer "Oh, just washing the car while it's fine". I'm not sure this happens anywhere else in the world.

They were all very strange to me too when I first went to the UK to learn English. I would learn something in classroom from English teachers and hear something else when I was talking to welsh people. It just started making some sense to me after I got married to a Welsh man and realized that the influence of Welsh Language in the everyday spoken English was huge. I'm gradually learning Welsh now and hopefully it'll all make complete sense to me one day. ☺☺

The “Do me a favor, will you?” is also an American thing. It’s a request, followed up by a question to make it sound a bit nicer. For example, “hey, do me a favor” sounds like a command, but if you say, “hey, do me a favor, will ya?” all of a sudden their guard is down a bit more, they’ll be more receptive to the instructions they’re trying to give you, because now it’s a request.

When you understand how in the welsh language sentences are constructed you start to see where some of the phrasing comes from, for example a classic West Walian phrase is 'Who belongs to that house?', or Who belongs to that Bike Car etc... means who owns it. Own - Berthyn in Welsh or belongs - Perthyn, they are essentially the same word in Welsh but, in Welsh the sentence is constructed backwards you don't own something you belong to it. It's right really you can't own something that will outlive you, you are a mere custodian of it. Each valley has a slightly different way of referring to a friend, Butt, Beaut (ogmore valley), and in Cardiff, Mate. Alright Mate? One of my favourites is 'Oh I'm bad', pronounced bard as though a sheep said it. I had a skinfull last night and now I'm baaard!! Now in a minute is one of my daughters favourite words in context, along with 'like' and are used to the point of distraction. I would say most of your Welsh phrases here though are very South Wales, if you go upto to mid wales, radnorshire you'll here farmers say things like 'How bisty boy?' meaning how are you, how beest thee?, boy added on for good Welsh measure. Swansea and West Wales like to use Boy as a term of endearment also. In Mid wales you'll also hear people say that's 'Jones the twmp, that is', so someone's surname is added onto their place of origin(farm etc). I think some Welsh words are more gentle than their English equivalent 'Twp' for example isn't as agressive as stupid, 'you are twp boy' I also love Wenglish, which you wouldn't hear up in North Wales or Ceredigion, Welsh is riddled with words which have been absorbed, bont, as in Penybont meaning bridge is from the Romans, Ffenestr - window also latin but very close to Fenestre in french, Ffos meaning ditch also Fosso in french and latin, Llyfr - book and llyfrgell - library are also roman of origin, as is Trist meaning sad. To truly understand the Welsh, you just need to sit and listen to the oldies natter, 'well, I never'.

Hello, Ysis, Lovely video. Just a few thoughts. In Welsh, we often say things backwards. For example: “Dw i’n, John!” In English, that’s “John, I am!” Telling the time in Welsh comes out like this:- “Five and twenty to six!” That’s because it’s said like that in Welsh. I was born near Rhymney. My favourite phrases from my Welsh childhood are:- “I’m tampin I am. Bloody tampin!” It means “I’m furious!” My Gran also came out with this classic:- “John, where were you going to yesterday when I saw you coming back!” Another greeting was:- “How be!” Again, from the Welsh, how be you! I would strongly advise you to get a copy of “How to talk tidy” by John Edwards. John’s videos are also on KZbin. They are hilarious. Best wishes and a Cwtch John

"There we are then" Can also be a polite way to insult, not in a nasty way usually between friends as long as every one knows what it means, usually turns into laughter. I will tell you the meaning but first, I was having lunch in a Cafe, with 4 or 5 friends that knew the meaning, my food was delayed, the waitress put my food on the table and said "There we are then" all my friends burst out laughing, if you take the first letter of each word I think you will understand. E from West Wales.

You are getting a Cardiff accent but number 8 is very Swansea, 'where to that's see?'. I live in Thailand and I have worked all over the world and never realised we said so many things the way you explain it but I admit to having a tear in my after your first video. I also think this is more South Walian than West or North. I'm from Port Talbot and I remember in the past being to tell within 10 miles where someone came from by their accent but I think that it is finished now apart from like the broader accent of the cities. No10 - I would say Iya. The biggest missing saying is Chwarea Teg, fair play, which is pronounced more as wara teg towards Cardiff.

Tooth is not said incorrectly by Welsh people, it's just not usual, although some parts if England also pronounce it the same as the Welsh. The English say " here" and " hear" identically. A lot of Welsh expressions you've identified are only used in some parts of Newport or Cardiff, they are very provincial. " mun" is an abbreviated version of " man". I heard Richard Buton say it when interviewed in the mid 70s.

I was born in Ystrad Mynach but only lived there for a couple of years, I have heard most of the sayings in your first two videos. The reason being my family moved to just outside London in 1938, we moved in with my Grandparents (both Welsh) and my Mother was also Welsh. Growing up I heard most of these expressions (and my Wife will tell you that I still use some of them)! "I'll be there now, in a minute" is her favourite one.

"Aw, love you" sounds to me like it might have started as "God love you" or "God love 'em" -- here some parts of the United States, depending on the tone, it's usually either to express sympathy (as in your examples) or to preface something that may otherwise sound mean. (E.g., "God love you, Janet, but this is not your strong suit."). I think it's relatively common in the UK, as well!

Mind. We used this in NE England, I haven’t heard it elsewhere. Don’t eat all that cake, mind. I can’t do that today, mind. Mind can also be used to mean take care or remember. Mind you don’t burn yourself. Mind your P’s and Q’s. Don’t start me off about ‘like’. It’s used so much, it drives me crazy! Mun = man, used a lot in Northern England and Scotland Alright = greeting, used a lot in Northern England In SW dialect, people use ‘where’s he to?’ to mean ‘where is he?’ or ‘where’s he going?’. Similarly they use boy or boi for males, and maid for females. And we have gert, but not lush! But only true Devonians would use those. I’ve lived here 25 years and wouldn’t dream of it. There’s a difference between accent and dialect.

I wonder why humans use filler words, such as like, eh, um, you know, etc. I'm Canadian and we are accused of always using eh. When I was younger this offended me so I began saying hey, instead of eh. "What are you doing, hey?" instead of "What are you doing, eh?" Our children began saying 'like' all the time when they told a story, similar, I now learn, to the Welsh. Their father particularly abhored that filler word. "Like what?" he would demand. The children would just stare at him. Filler words are used without thinking about them. I think that some filler words, particularly those at the end of a sentence are used to solicit a response from the other person. It's a prompt. Perhaps it indicates that our question is not a retorical one. Hmm.

I think if you hear the Welsh intonnation and see exactly where and how they use them in a sentence it comes across very different than standard usage.

It’s more the accent that makes it different rather than the actual word

I say "aww bless!" I commented on your first video as I say the majority of what was on there, I think I say most of these ones as well! I did mention "mun" on your first video! I use "mun" a lot! Where I live now, in Wales (I'm originally from Cardiff, but live further west now) they say "awww treuni" not sure if that's the correct spelling - treuni is like saying - awww bless (or something like that). Another thing they say here, which I wouldn't have said in Cardiff is something like "alright g'boy or g'girl" Bois Bach - a term of exasperation! If somebody is sulking they say they're having a poody (not sure how to spell that either as I've only heard it here).

Pwdi as in having a pwdi. Bach as a term of endearment, So "How you going Nic bach?" even though I tower over them. There is also the habit of throwing in Welsh phrases in English conversation "Ti'n iawn bach?" or "Peint arall?" and "Come on bois Chwarae teg!"

My knowledge of Welsh is limited to that show, you know the one. The only one I heard in the show that wasn’t covered was oh. This seems to be said like we would use oy or hey! Is that common?

These things are said in SOUTH Wales. You wouldn't hear them so much in West Wales or North Wales.

Here’s some things I find myself saying a lot, if someone’s giving cheek id say “no boy don’t get lipping now”, if someone’s stupid I’d say “boy he couldn’t tell a green from a blue wall.” And also “me” instead of my and if you can’t tell saying “boy” a lot, I accidentally say it so much that even other welsh people say I say it so much so even at the start of sentences I could say “boy he wouldn’t know” or “don’t be silly boy” so it’s kinda like saying butt which I find myself changing a lot, another one is if someone asks “where did you go” we would say “I went to the pub didn’t I” so we would add “didn’t I” on the end even though they had no idea where we went which I find is always funny because their response then is almost always “ah I didn’t know”. Hope you make another vid, I’m from west wales in Pembrokeshire if his helps. I’m pretty sure these are welsh but only ever living in wales I wouldn’t know if the saes use these but my English mate I’ve never heard say. Oh and “boy” isn’t specifically said to boys, it’s said to girls to.
