Hello @jeanette-lee

Iā€™m also a bit lost on the Forum threads but your sentences are great - much better than my pronounciation - well done. I think my favourite word so far is ā€˜rhywbethā€™ but Iā€™m no good at rolling the ā€˜rā€™!

Hello @rosie-johns

You sound like a natural. Iā€™m sure it helps being in Cardiff. Well done!

I agree with others - very clear and great pronunciation @rosie-johns :star2: and I love the way you casually throw ā€œarchfarchnadā€ into your sentences, @nickmanville :+1: - not an easy word to come to grips with!

Diolch Dee. Thatā€™s nice to hear as my English accent is more Eastenders than Pobol y Cwm.

Okay hereā€™s my first soundcloud. Pretty boring compared to others as I just have words from the first ten weeks or so! But a start

Da iawn Paul! Off to a great start :slight_smile:

#806

Well, here goes; but now that I have recorded the five sentences, Iā€™ve got this horrible feeling that Iā€™ve just strung random Welsh words together!

Diolch Sam! Thatā€™s really nice to hear. Just a few words can be very encouraging and this forum is great for that. Good luck with your journey too. What challenge are you on now?

#810

Thank you, Iā€™m on challenge 12. My brain really is melting :crazy_face:

That was very clear @Tony_Davis and made complete sense. In some respect, weā€™re all stringing random Welsh words together, but thatā€™s how one builds up sentences.

By the way, Iā€™m old enough to remember Yogi B the first time round!
