I’m still on level 1, so you got me beat. :grinning:

You will be surprised with how much you can actually say. You know present, future and past tenses, already. At this point adding more vocabulary words will help immensely. At least it does for me. In terms of completing Challenges, I’m working on Level 2, Challenge 3. Sounds like we are around the same knowledge level. I consider my a siaradwr Cymraeg with a limited vocabulary.

It’s interesting to read how nervous everyone is, myself included, but we are coming together to share an interest, maybe a passion, and help each one another learn. I’m excited for the opportunity.

If only it was a race. :smile:

Hello! I just saw this and missed last week. Not sure if this is happening weekly…?

Damn! I just remembered about this–at 8 pm. How did it go? Will it be happening weekly? I can’t do next Thursday but after that, I hope to join, if I can remember to show up!

We had the first weekly meet up and I think it went great. @AnnaC @KellyMoore @jennifer-thomas-mend @laurawydapszeniczny @Abbey joined the meeting and we all told one another a little about ourselves and asked questions and laughed. We even learned a bit of color from Laura’s Grandma.

We will do it again next Thursday, October 25.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get out of work on time, so I ended up getting home around 8 or so last night. How did it go?

It was fun. Everyone had multiple opportunities to speak.

That’s always the issue, right! I’ll add to this thread as a reminder next week. Maybe that will help.

@delawarejones I enjoyed chatting last week, even if I was unprepared and spoke little Cymraeg. Thank you for organizing!
I likely will not be able to participate this week. The kids have a Halloween party 6-8. Please keep me on the list as I intend to rejoin next week. Thank you!

@delawarejones I don’t know what story I’m going to tell yet :thinking: , but I’m planning on joining in on Thursday. See you then!

@violetsnow @laurawydapszeniczny. Thanks for letting me know and I’ll do a reminder next week as well.

@AnnaC I suspect you will find a good story to tell. My story is the first bad word that came out of my Daughter’s mouth when she was three. It’s cute and funny

Diolch, Aran. But really, if it wasn’t for SSiW, and the great community of people, like @tahl I wouldn’t be doing any of it. More evidence of internet strangers reaching out to help others more than anything I’m doing.

Hi @aran! I don’t think I’ve been on the forum since 2016… but it seems like life is finally settling down a bit. I haven’t even talked with Mari in nearly a year, but trying to get back into it. Miss chatting with you & I hope all is well! Maybe we can talk soon. Tan toc!
