RHAN 1

1. 		In Gwers 3 you learnt 

			ydw i		-	am I
			ydych chi	-	are you

	Now learn the plural ‘we’ form:

	You can now say;

			Nigel ydw i.			
- Nigel am I / I'm Nigel.

			Cennard ydych chi.		
- Cennard are you / You're Cennard.

			Nigel a Cennard ydyn ni.	
				- Nigel and Cennard are we / We’re Nigel and Cennard.

		You can also ask and answer:

			Pwy ydw i?

			Pwy ydych chi?  (singular ‘you’)			
			- Nigel ydw i.

			Pwy ydych chi?  (plural ‘you’)
			- Nigel a Cennard ydyn ni.

2. 		You already know how to say:

		(Ry)dw i’n byw / gweithio / siopa yn Llandrindod.
		- I live / work / shop in Llandrindod Wells.

		R(yd)ych chi’n byw / gweithio / siopa yng Nghaergybi.
		- You live / work / shop in Holyhead.

			‘Dwi’n hoffi		-	I like
			R’ych chi’n hoffi	-	You like
			R’yn ni’n hoffi	-	We like

	(a)  We can add a noun to complete our sentence.
		
		These nouns, the meanings of which you can guess, are very 			similar in spelling and pronunciation to English.  So you can say 		what you, as a family like.

					Rydyn ni’n hoffi jeli.
					- We like jelly.

					R’yn ni’n hoffi ffilmiau / ffilmiau cowboi.
					- We like films / cowboy films.

	(b)  We can also add a verb noun  -  a doing word:

		Rydyn ni’n hoffi siopa.
		- We like to shop (shopping).

		R’yn ni’n hoffi byw yn Birmingham.
		- We like to live (living) in Birmingham.

	3.	The negative form:
		
				R(yd)yn ni		-	We are / do
				Dydyn ni ddim 	-	We are not / don't
				(D’yn ni ddim)

			(Dy)dyn ni ddim yn hoffi coffi.
			- We don't like coffee.

			(Dy)dyn ni ddim yn hoffi siopa.
			- We don't like shopping (to shop).

			Ble r(yd)ych chi'n byw?
			- Where do you live?

		And the singular reply:

			‘Dw i’n byw yn Llandaf.

		You can now answer this type of question in the plural - on behalf 			of your family perhaps.

			R(yd)yn ni'n byw yng Nghaerdydd.
			- We live / We are living in Cardiff.

	Answer these questions on behalf of your family:

			Ble r(yd)ych chi'n gweithio?

			Ble rydyn ni’n chwarae heddiw?
			- Where are we playing today?

	If you are part othe group refered to as ‘ni’ in the question, your 	replies would begin with ‘Rydyn ni’

			Rydyn ni’n chwarae yn Abertawe.
			- We are playing in Swansea.

	If you are not a member of the group, your replies begin with 
	‘Rydych chi’
