Here is my recording made a couple of weeks ago of the first questions. I can spot two mistakes, but thatā€™s fine (remember/forget and not softening after wnes I), but I wanted to share the original and not make a new one. Here it is:

Well, that was painful - and I already spotted a dweud that should have been a siarad! O daro!

Just moved this here @malnet3. Someone started that other thread, but itā€™s not the ā€˜officialā€™ one. Youā€™re in the right place now, and youā€™ve got your red badge for saying all your 5-minute sentences. Da iawn ti!

If itā€™s any consolation, I keep making this mistake too! My other favourite is saying ā€œymarferā€ instead of ā€œ(g)wellaā€. Oh, and softening when I shouldnā€™t. I keep saying ā€œWnes i ddim gofioā€ forgetting that the ā€œ(d)dimā€ takes the mutation so there isnā€™t one for ā€œcofioā€. Still, it would be boring if we got it all right straight away!

Well Soniakw that worked like a dream. That was a pleasure to listen to because you have gentle intonation and an obvious love of Welsh.

Well, hereā€™s my effort. Not very interesting sentences, Iā€™m afraid! The old brain went a bit blank on me a few times! Is there a minimum standard required?

Can I be cheeky and ask for some feedback on mine? Iā€™d like to know if anything is outright wrong or doesnā€™t make sense. If anyone has some time, Iā€™d really appreciate it.

It was great - understood all of it, enjoyed the dreadful cat - youā€™re doing very wellā€¦ :slight_smile:

Cheers Aran, appreciate it! The horrible cat is the bane of my lifeā€¦
