    Hwyl is also equivalent to the English: 'have fun' gesture when leaving. And Da bo chi translates to the the English: 'be good' leaving gesture.

    Recently moved to Chester and wanted to learn some of the Welsh language for when I cross over the border. It’s a nice feeling to be polite, right.

    I'm really struggling to find resources for north welsh specifically, not many places I can find acknowledge the difference and duolingo is south welsh according to my family. So I really appreciate that you've made videos specifying which words are from which part.

    Rather shamefully, I didn't learn any Welsh when I drove down to Caernarfon Castle many years ago, and despite enjoying the countryside and the town,the locals were downright rude and hostile to me,being an English tourist. It left a very bad impression on the Welsh on me, but I decided to give it another go and learn some of what you're kindly teaching here.So,I hope the locals can be a bit more friendlier this time when I go down there. Thank you. :)

      The welsh aren’t fond of the English and even if you’re from another part of wales it can be a bit awkward. If you don’t know welsh apparently sometimes they won’t even acknowledge you (if they’re welsh speakers), so it’s better to learn and hopefully you’ll get a better reacting :)

    Thank you for your time in doing these videos for those of us that want to learn, I fully appreciate the learning. I have learned that part of my family was welsh and have often said that welsh should be taught as a language option in English schools which I would have thoroughly enjoyed and loved to have done.
    I do know of a couple of schools in England that have Welsh speaking teachers who teach the young children some Welsh which I fully appreciate as its a beautiful language..xxx

    I would be interested to know what goodbye was in Welsh, say a hundred or two hundred years ago. For example, no one says "farewell" now in English, it's very literary. Funny fact, in Denmark they still say "farvel" to mean goodbye today. Sometimes Germans will say "viel Spass" (lot of fun) when saying goodbye too.

    Interesting Jason and thanks. I used to live and study in Lampeter West Wales and the locals whether speaking English or Welsh always said “ ta da” for goodbye. They used the other vocab you mention here but it was always ta da for goodbye. Is that a Ceredigion thing or an Anglicism like Cilla Black’s ta ra?

    • @LearnWelshPodcast
      @LearnWelshPodcast  Рік тому +2

      People in Swansea often say Ta ta for goodbye. So it looks like it’s one of those phrases that turn up in lots of places in Wales and nearby, just with a slight variation

    Hiya, I’m from the Valleys where we do not speak fluent Welsh.
    I am endeavouring to learn but am finding it so hard to put the verbs before the nouns.
    For instance
    Te dych chin. Do you like tea? “Te” being tea.
    I know all the usual bore da. Nos da. Prynhawn da. Nos waith daa. Etc
    But I just can’t understand the backward phrases?

    • @LearnWelshPodcast
      @LearnWelshPodcast  2 роки тому +8

      It’s great that you’re learning Welsh in a part of Wales not known for speaking Welsh. I’m from Swansea so I know exactly what it’s like. Some people are going to ask you why you’re bothering to learn Welsh as everyone speaks English in Wales. Ignore them. You have your own reasons for learning the language and they are valid. So just keep learning more and more Welsh and enjoy it. That’s the important bit. Have fun. Don’t worry too much about the backward questions. That form is only used when you are using emphasis in your sentence. Let’s look at the question you mention. There are very few moments when I would use it. Mostly I would say ‘Dych chi’n hoffi te? BTW you left the hoffi out of your question. You asked if that person is tea. It might be a valid question though, as some people I know drink so much tea they start to look like it. 😀 Anyway just enjoy the experience. Don’t worry if you make mistakes and keep on learning. You’ll do great.

    For God sake the whole country of Wales is as big as a standard county in the US they just unify the language. Just sit down and compromise and unify it. You shouldn't have to remember changes if your checking out Snowdonia or remember changes if your in Cardiff. And they should offer certificates of language study for people outside of Wales to come and learn there mother language. Equipped with on campus living, and a place of study for a year. I'm mean they say they want to preserve the language but it don't look like there trying to hard. I mean do they have any idea how many Welsh blooded American's alone that would come and learn?? I doubt it. It'd be huge for business plus spread the language even further .....it's a win , win. Hell you could get a student visa for Wales alone, just sign an agreement you must stay inside of Wales, study for a year........learn , have a great experience.

    • @Gaspode_
      @Gaspode_ 3 роки тому +8

      But it is the same, just either pronounced differently or with different regional norms for the phrases used. The same could be said for the USA (or any other contry). Why do people from speak differently to ? Why is it Hi is some places, Howdy in others, S'up in yet others? Is a fizzy drink called coke, soda, or pop? You know they are all more or less the same thing becasue you are immersed in the culture - to someone who isnt and is learning English they might resonably see that as ununified and confusing.

      @scottfree9994 3 роки тому +2

      @@Gaspode_ I see. Thanks for the clarification. So your saying it's like the word 'Hi" in the US. People still use it all over the US but it depends on there mood in the south if they say Howdy or not? So if you said "Shwmae" in say......Snowdonia they'd know what you meant. Other than them picking up your a southerner?
