RHAN 1

	1.	fe / mi faswn i	-	I would

		You have already met this pattern

	Fe faswn i'n mynd i Florida.
	- I would  go to Florida.     

	Mi faswn i'n prynu Aston Martin.
	- I would buy an Aston Martin.

	2. 	(pe) taswn i    	-	if I were (to)

	Taswn i'n gyfoethog, fe faswn i'n prynu Aston Martin.
	- If I were rich, I would buy an Aston Martin.
		
	Fe faswn i'n gwisgo cot, taswn i'n oer.
- I would wear a coat, if I were cold.

	You'll notice that the word order can vary in both English and Welsh

3.	You'll notice that in English it sometimes looks as if the Past Tense of 	the verb is used in the if clause. But this is not really a Past Tense 	sentence.

	Always remember that what is actually being said is ‘were to’ do 	something:

			if I had	=	if I were to have
			if I went	=	if I were to go
					if I won	=	if I were to win	

	So, in Welsh we need to use ‘taswn i'n’ followed by the ordinary verb noun.

	Fe faswn i'n mynd i'r parti, taswn i'n cael dillad newydd.
	- I would go to the party, if I were to have new clothes.
					      (if I had new clothes)
		
	Mi faswn i'n gweld Twr Eiffel, taswn i'n mynd i Baris.
	- I would see the Eiffel Tower, if I were to go to Paris.
						  (if I went to Paris)

	Taswn i'n ennill y Loteri, fe faswn i'n prynu iot.
	- If I were to win the Lottery, I would buy a yacht.
		(If I won the Lottery)	

	
	4.	mi faset ti	    	    -	  you would
	fe / mi fasech chi	    -	  you would

	You’re already familiar with these patterns too

	Fe faset ti'n synnu.
	- You would be suprised.

	Mi fasech chi'n teimlo'n well.
	- You would feel better.

	5.	(pe) taset ti               -	   if you were to
	(pe) tasech chi         -	   if you were to

	Taset ti'n mynd i'r India, fe faset ti'n gweld y Taj Mahal.
	- If you went (were to go) to India , you'd see the Taj Mahal.

	Mi fasech chi'n colli pwysau, tasech chi'n bwyta salad.
	- You'd lose weight, if you ate (were to eat) salad.
