If you want to say I went out you would say es i allan, or you could say I've been out : dwi wedi bod allan, but i've never hear it used like you do( even tho it makes sense)
Great Video. Love watching u get all flustered! haha
One question tho. Your English accent is quite "English" but your Welsh accent is very
Bangor ish Are you a native Welsh speaker? I went thru Welsh education in both South and North Wales, and I don't know why but some of the words you have used and the way you say them are quite new to me!! hehe
@ooiamsamoo LOL! Well my Mum's English which probably explains my "English" accent., and for the first 18 years of my life I was brought up in Gwynedd, which explains the 'Bangor' bit. LOL if you like seeing me flustered, you should see my outtakes sometime!
I think your lessons are excllent. I have just begun using the BBC Welsh lang course (video) which is very good but they 1) speak too quick and therefore you are uncertain how to pronounce certain words. It has taken me ages to write down what they say as it sounds. Then I came across your videos. They are truly wonderful and I learnt how to say many of the words I was having difficulty with in minutes. Thank you so much.
Here's a question I've been having since I started using some Rosetta Stone language software. Why is it that some words change depending on the place they are in a sentence? For example, 5 is pump, but if it is after some words it is phump. Thanks!
@deusabscondidum This is true. We (Americans) do say 'quarter to' and 'quarter after'. But we do say 'Half Past' sometimes, as in "half past ten". And actually in the South (American southeast), where I'm from, instead of saying "quarter to", we'll say "quarter til". Like "quarter til three"

What is the difference between 'nos da' and 'noswaith dda'? Is 'noswaith' a formal way to say good night/evening?

In America we do say 'quarter to.' Usually we say 'quarter after' instead of 'quarter past.'
