Oedd yn grét i siarad efo y grwp, eto! It was great to speak with the group, again! We heard about Arizona, the hiking, a cool place to visit, Slide Rock Park, and touring the Navajo Indian Reservation, how annoying it is to want a cup of tea in a hotel room but the coffee maker is too dirty, and lastly, exciting plans to visit Wales this June.

Also, here are two links to interesting Welsh shows currently available on S4C International
Galw Nain Nain Nain - Reality dating show that occurs over a three course dinner and each course the person meets a new date. What is different is the Grandmother sits outside watching the dates and gets to interact with her Grandson or Granddaughter, and ultimately picks which of the three her grandchild has a second date with. It’s cute and entertaining.
Anorac - Huw Stephens spends 4 days touring Wales interviewing past and current Welsh music bands, including Datblydgu, Meic Stevens, Kizzy Crawford, Gwenno and many others!

Yeah that hotel coffee maker was yn fudr (dirty). It couldn’t make hot water for a nice paned o de. (Cup of tea).
Anyways it was really great catching up and speaking Welsh with the guys last night. Hopefully some of the ladies will be able to rejoin soon.

Amser neis heno. (Nice time tonight). Thanks for joining, @sasha-lathrop.
@delawarejones, we talked about this tonight. I could not find nor remember at the time about the “I would” patterns. Here is what I have. If anyone needs to correct, feel free.

I would – Byddwn i

You would – Byddet ti, Byddech chi

He would – Byddai fe

She would – Byddai hi

We would – Bydden ni

They would – Bydden nhw

Diolch, David a Sasha.

Oedd o’n cyfarfod da iawn arall. It was another good meeting. Sasha joined for the first time and really worked with her telling of her favorite movie. We listened to our favorite movies, Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Baraka and About Time. Baraka and About Time were new to the group. A lot of new words were learned, but unfortunately, I forgot to copy them off the chat before ending the session…oops. David or Sasha, if you can remember, please share.

Bore da, Sean-O! I don’t know what your morning’s are like, but if you’re free, you should join the group! There is a toll-free Australia number for the video conference service I use…just a thought! It’d be great to expand the group outside the US.

benegedig - beyond amazing
golygus - handsome (we do have handsome pets, don’t we? :wink: )
byddai i’n - I will
perffaith - perfect
datrys - solve
bywyd dynol - human life
ysbrydolrwydd - spirituality

(Let me know if I need to make any edits, please!)
