    This is brilliant. My sis and family live in Wales and my nephew has always spoken Welsh fluently. In fact his Welsh is far better than his English. I'd love to freak him out by randomly being able to speak Welsh.

    Plus his mates would think I'm even cooler! :j

    I've been using this course and I think it's terrific - highly recommended :)
  • My sis-in-law lives in Llanelli and I love all her sayings that are different to ours. And, yes, she does say things like "We'll put ourselves tidy and go to Town ... isn't it? :D When I stay there for a week or so I come back with a Welsh accent too.

    She often throws in the odd Welsh word for things so I'd love to be able to surprise her with a little Welsh of my own.

    Thanks for posting the link - will check it out. :T

    It really is a good course, I've learned more from this course than any other Welsh course as there's no long lists of words to learn before you start. With all other Welsh courses I've done I've usually given up by now:o
