			gwerth tair punt   	 -   	£3 worth

	2.	Ga(f) i?         -        May I / May I have?

	This pattern is not new to you. It is always followed by a Soft Mutation

	(a)	 When the object is a noun,  ‘Ga’ i?’ conveys ‘ May I have?’

			Ga' i betrol?		
			- May I have petrol?
	
			Ga’ i werth deg punt o betrol, os gwelwch yn dda?
				- May I have ten pounds’ worth of petrol, please?

		(b)	When the object is a verb, ‘Ga’ i?’ conveys ‘May I?’ 

			Ga' i ddod?		
			- May I come?

                           Ga’ i brynu olew, os rwelwch yn dda?
			- May I buy oil, please?

	3.	Replies to a ‘chi ‘person

			Cewch	-	Yes (you may / may have)

	To a ‘ti’ person

			Cei		-	Yes (you may / may have)
			Na chei	-	No (you may not / may not have)

	You could always use the following as replies:

			Iawn!		-	Fine!  (Al)right!  O.K.!
			Croeso!	-	Welcome! Pleasure!
			Â chroeso!	-	With pleasure!
			Wrth gwrs!	-	Of course!

		Ga’ i betrol, os gwelwch yn dda?  -  Cewch / Â chroeso / Iawn!
		- May I have petrol, please?  - Yes / With pleasure / Right!

	4.	Pa fath?        -       What kind / sort?

		Cewch.  Pa fath? 	
		- Yes.  What sort?
		Di-blwm, os gwelwch yn dda.	
- Lead free, please. 

   	There is no need to translate he word ‘some’ into Welsh.

	5.	Faint?     -     How much?               Gwerth     -     Worth

		- O.K. How much?
		Gwerth deg punt. Diolch.
		- £10 worth.Thanks.
				
6. 		Wnewch chi......?	  -	Will / Would you......?

		As you're probably not on familiar terms with the person in the 			garage (though of course you could be!) we'll use the ‘chi’ question.

		As with ‘Ga' i?’ the object undergoes a Soft Mutation

				Wnewch chi drwsio'r car?
				- Will / Would you repair the car?

			Wnewch chi newid y teiars?
				- Will you change the tyres?

				Wnewch chi edrych ar yr olew?
				- Will you check (look at) the oil?

			Ga' i werth deg punt o betrol - a wnewch chi edrych ar yr olew?
			- May I have £10 worth of petrol  - and will you check the oil?

			Wnewch chi newid y teiar ™l -  a ga' i litr o olew hefyd, os 				gwelwch yn dda (pl”s)?
				- Will you change the back tyre - and may I have a litre of oil, 				  please?

	7.	The replies to a ‘Wnewch chi?’ question are

		Gwnaf		   	-	Yes  (I will do)
		(Gwnaf) ‰ chroeso   	-	(Yes), with pleasure
			(Gwnaf) wrth gwrs 	-	(Yes), of course
			Na wnaf		    	-	No (I won't do)

				Wnewch chi newid y teiar blaen, os gwelwch yn dda?
