I'm from Trelew, a city next to Puerto Madryn (Argentina). Here we still preserve Welsh and I was so happy that you mentioned the Mimosa and Patagonia... I'm trying to learn Welsh myself!

I'm from Kazakhstan and as a language nerd I got stuck in this video :) Wishing all y werin Gymreig to save your language. Make Celtic culture great again!

I love the Welsh language so much. I find it to be absolutely beautiful!

This is the best resource online explaining Welsh poetry. Thanks!

Because I'm Breton and "Brittophone" it's for me a holy duty to learn and speak Cymraeg ...dw i'n hoffi dysgu a siarad Cymraeg ...da iawn diolch fi mrawd

I have the Welsh Bible that came over on the boat my ancestors brought with them here in the United States. I have made it a goal to learn the Welsh language to preserve my heritage for my 5 children and 5 grandchildren.

This was fascinating! Thank you for all your efforts. I am trying to learn Welsh. I always wantedy grandparents to teach me. They spoke Welsh with eachother, but no one else. 😅 I loved them dearly. I hope one day I succeed in my goal. Bless.

Thanks from Patagonia Argentina

These poetry rules blew my mind. It was fun!

My great-grandfather helped to restore the Ffestiniog Railway, he married my great-grandmother who was from North Yorkshire though so while we inherited the surname Davies and dark hair from his side we didn't inherit the Welsh language so I am learning now.

This was so fantastic.., You really helped me get to the nest stage in my studies....Diolch Mate!

Although you lost me around the poem part, I found your post very helpful especially the Tabl Treigladau / mutations. I shall play this again and hopefully find any other posts you may have done. Cheers!

Gosh what a handsome and charismatic teacher 😅 makes me want to work twice as hard and excel !! 😝

Diolch. I thoroughly enjoyed the video. Recently I’ve been running Ras Gader. The top is a veritable throne. Left Wales at a very young age so don’t remember a lot of Welsh. Have never forgotten my roots though.

Great video. Diolch!

Prenhawnda, dw in dysgu cymraeg, O ble or tin dod Gaerdydd. Ive been learning for a month and was educated in Saesneg. Diolch yn fawr for the video.

I’m not sure all the detail on mutation really counts as beginners. But it looks useful and I will come back to it. Diolch!

31:53 One of the loveliest examples of Cynghanedd Groes I've found in English is the last line of the song "Linden Lea" - And there for me the apple tree / *_Do lean down low on Linden Lea_*

Any thoughts on where to go in Caerdyff and/or southeast Wales and meet Welsh speakers?

Born Sir FFlint. Was not allowed to learn/study Cymraeg in Primary school. Was allowed to take it as an elective subject from second year at Grammar school , but I stuffed up and was moved to Secondary School after third year. Again no learning/studying Cymraeg. Nowadays, I occasionally delve into my Geiriadur Sylfaenol I Ddysgwyr.

Learning Welsh on Duolingo currently but I crave more, I spotted a glitch (I think ??) , on Duolingo I was taught butter is menyn... ???? I love this video, I'm seeking Welsh courses in nyc and coming up short, it's like this elusive language that I can't find anywhere in education here or any public language programs offering Welsh, nothing.. it's driving me mad, do you have any suggestions ??? Love this video, diolch!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Nevermind, I googled and answered my own question.. that mutation stuff u were discussing earlier I see wow!! Welsh isn't easy whatsoever but I love learning it, it always struck me as Elvish sounding so the Tolkien factoid makes sense and very interesting!!! If anyone knows good either online Welsh or in person in nyc please pass my way, diolch!! 👍👍 I crave to learn it and definitely wanna visit someday, I have distant relatives in Wales would love to one day visit!!!

I learned about my Welsh ancestry quite by accident (?) and now have a very long family tree going back to Cole Hen. I want to learn how to pronounce my ancestor's names and to pronounce the names in the Mabinogion.... Cymraeg is so beautiful.....yes music in one's heart and poetry in one's soul, rings true....

@@jandunn169 thanks Jan! my maiden name is Croft I have been trying to find out more about the Croft castle and their descendants I have Welsh on both sides of my family. I'm just in the beginning stages of research. I'm the last Croft on my dad's side we lost my brother in 1990. This really means allot to me. I never got to meet grandpa Croft.

...Also, I love lava bread, and you never mentioned the cockles (which I first sampled at market in Cardiff and loved) and other amazing seafood available fresh at market. The lamb is exceptional..as someone whom is looking forward to their 3rd trip to Wales I think you should not down play the food and instead dig deeper into the amazing chefs and brewmeisters through out the Cymru countryside and then invite me to come and enjoy and wright fantastic reviews of their amazing food, bringing swarms of tourists to visit..or..maybe knot. Tourists are punks...just saying.

11:28 so it's not a gender marker for the cat but the pronunciation of cat changes depending on the owner's gender? That's sort of weird.

I have Welsh ancestry but I never learned the language and I've only ever driven through it. Shamed to admit it.

I'd love to speak Welsh but at 75 probably will run out of time, pity.

P.S. How do you know when a word is feminine or masculine?

(Native speaker here) Sorry to say it's pretty much arbitrary - it's a bit of a common feature across languages that feature gendered nouns, German is even worse. Unfortunately you kinda just have to learn them and know. Welsh is a bit kinder than other languages in that (at least in everyday modern use) you can get away with using the incorrect gender without it sounding too wrong - as a native speaker I often forget!
