Learning Welsh using a new language hack, ‘625 words in your target language’. Part 1 - Animals
There is a new language learning hack that is becoming popular in the language learning community. The idea is to learn 625 words in your target language. Each set of words is broken up into categories that are supposed to be particularly useful for language learners. So in todays video we are going to learn more about this language hack and I’m going to teach you the Welsh versions of each word in the first section, which is all about animals.

Cattle were so important to the ancient Welsh it literally became the word for good Da - old word for cattle Gwartheg - cattle
It’s true what you say Jason. When I listen to Radio Cymru 🏴 and hear a new Welsh word I understand I get really excited. Very enjoyable and inspirational. Keep up the good work.
Please continue with this series, it is really helpful and you are great at explaining and pronouncing the welsh words☺️

It is such a cool, underrated, and beautiful sounding language. If I ever have any children, I would love to teach it to them. Much love from Oklahoma. 💟
I love your background… all the antiques!
Bochdew ...- fat cheek.....my favourite Welsh animal word for Hamster
Your living room looks so cozy.
What a great idea for a series of videos. Hopefully it'll be a boost to my vocabulary. Diolch!
Thank you so much! I've been trying to build out this exact list, but struggle with pronunciation.
Diolch yn fawr iawn! (a big thank you!)
Jason your house looks interesting! you have a nice room with nice things!
Sutmae Jason from Melbourne! After many years attempting to learn the language of my ancestors I’m finally making progress with your enjoyable podcasts.I come of a Welsh family and my Dad was Welsh but I was born over the border in Cheshire ! My Grandad was a founder of the Transport and General Workers Union in North East Wales and served as a Labour Councillor for many years for Pen y Ffordd in Flintshire. He was a friend and close colleague of Huw T Edwards who was highly influential in union Labour and Plaid Cymru circles. Huw T was also a Bard of The Goresedd. It’s one of my ambitions to read his autobiography “Tros y Tresi” in its original Welsh! Best wishes John Ithell
This is so useful! Diolch! I love how cow sounds the same as saying book in a scouse accent :D
Man I am Irish Go raibh maith agat ma chara. .but Welsh is on my list. .Such a brilliant language with as much ancient tales as us Irish massive respect my fellow Celt .. Truly meant
Dioch yn fawr. My first welsh language lesson since I was 8.
Horse in italian is Cavallo (ku-vahl-low), similar to Keyfil
Lovely home in the background! Thanks for a really useful podcast, just subscribed.
This is working well for me -- thank you!
Thank you. This was so helpful! Great teaching!
Wonderful as always! Thank you so much.
I’m caught up by your enthusiasm!
Absolutely brilliant! Da iawn!! I’ll know hopefully know these forever now :)
Just found your videos, so excited to start watching them and learning the Welsh language of my ancestors.
Loving these video's so mush passion is put into them, the wantingness to teach Welsh is strongly felt.
I've just started to try and learn some Welsh and I've found your videos very helpful. 👍
That was a great video!! I knew most of the words, it is the tenses that I really struggle with. I think that I would be able to navigate a menu or a simple tourist brochure, but to speak Welsh would be such a struggle.
Thanks again Jason. A big thumbs up!

Hi! Part 2 is already out and is about words related to transport. I’ve recorded Part 3 and it’s the next video on my list to edit, so it should be out soon.
Gostei muito
It would have been nice if you'd mentioned the genders of the words, so we knew whether or not to mutate (when appropriate)

Do you have a video on y pronunciation? I'm using Duolingo but it feels like I'm never quite understanding when the y sounds different
Cow sound like the scouse for book

I know two German words for apricots: Marillen and Aprikosen. Aaargh! I should be learning two Welsh words.

Here’s a useful Welsh word to learn. Bricyllen. And it has nothing to do with apricots. Honest!😉
Diolch.LOL Heddwch/ Peace.
Nothing to do with this video, but I have been watching the channel for quite some time now . As a history buf It just a occurred to me to wonder if there were any monuments to the great welsh secret agent Glyndwr Michael in Wales. And how much resentment is there about how MI-5 body snatched him ?
I just wanna learn words from the year 685.

Don’t we all!
It's weird how Welsh sounds a bit like Scouse. Like "cow" is exactly how you pronounce "book" in Scouse.
One simple thing every welsh language misses IS the correct prononciation for thé welsh word for colours, everyone teaches the undividual colours but doesn't actually tell you thé welsh word clearly for "colours"... Even the kids song garbles the word in the song , so simple so frustrating
