I intended on posting a video about the Elan Valley Clearance, but the videos sat for so long on my phone I can't download it from iCloud - rip my phone storage. I plan to refilm it and hopefully get it up as the next video in a fortnight, pain flare willing. This week I thought I'd do a Cornel S...

Hi all,
Thanks so much for bearing with me. I'm working on a DC which will be up soon. In the meantime I thought I'd drop a reading list of some of my favourite Cymreig books (I will add to this list as I find new reads)
This is a list of books in English, if you would like some Cym...

It's finally time to wrap up Y Treigladau with the final set - Y Treiglad Meddal.
Sorry for the delay, the editing took longer than I expected.
I recommend watching this video in sections because there's a lot of information and I don't want you to feel overwhelmed...
Do you think the lake looks like Australia?
Today's video is fairly short and sweet. I also hope I've given you a good point to continue research from if you want to have a look at the legislative side of things.

Are you ready for the soft mutation next week?
What should we tackle next?
I was going to put this up last week but I hope you don't mind the delay so the dates matched up.
I'm having an issue with the website for the inquiry so check back later :)
Interrupting the mutations trio to bring you a vocab lesson.

Let me know if I've missed anything
We are finally starting the mutations! First up is the Aspirate Mutation or Treiglad Llaes.
