Hello friends! Happy new year, and of course, blwyddyn newydd dda! I feel like I say it every year, but I can’t believe how quickly this year has gone. It feels like I was just drafting my post in January 2024, and now here we are. But before we jump into what I’d like to … Continue reading Blwyddyn newydd dda!
Well! I’ve written and rewritten this opening paragraph about six times now, the vibe was off every single time - usually in these posts, I check my progress against the goals I set myself this time last year. I say ‘goals’, but they’re more sort of general guidelines; I don’t like to be too strict … Continue reading An uncharacteristically positive start
I've been doing Polyglot NaNoWriMo now for more years than I'd care to remember. Every year, I tell myself it'll be different - it won't matter if I miss a few days here and there, I'll be able to catch up; maybe I only need to do half of it, that's better than nothing; I … Continue reading A Polyglot NaNoWriMo success story
Bore da, ffrindiau! Mis yma roeddwn i eisiau ysgrifennu rhywbeth yn Gymraeg, ond doeddwn i ddim yn gwybod… beth. Felly meddyliais, efallai byddai rhywfath o ddiweddariad yn syniad da. Dw i ddim yn gwybod, os mae unrhyw un o hyn gwneud synnwyr, ond bydd hi’n ddiddorol gweld sut dw i'n gwella dros amser, gan ddefnyddio … Continue reading Diweddariad byr
P'nawn da, ffrindiau! Sut dach chi? Dw i'n dda iawn, diolch yn fawr! To be honest with you, I wasn't entirely sure what I was going to write about this month. I know I've got a bit of a reputation as a serial dabbler, and I can't deny that I've definitely earned it in the … Continue reading Adventures in Welsh
Listen. I’m still processing 2017, and I think it’s deeply unfair of you to make me embark upon yet another year I’m not ready for with so little warning. I hear what some of you are screaming at your screens, it allegedly happens like this every twelve months. To those vocal few I say this: … Continue reading New year, same old me
Bore da, ffrindiau! Sut dach chi? Y Bioden Ieithoedd dw i. Dw i’n dysgu Cymraeg. And if you’ve been following my blog for a while, you’ll probably know that I’ve been dysgu-ing Cymraeg for quite some time, with embarrassingly little to show for it. My voracious dabbling is well documented on this blog, and although … Continue reading Dach chi’n prynu pannas, Mrs Jones?
So since I spoiled you all (read: really tuckered out the ol' brain box) by writing two posts last month, I'm taking this month off, so this is just going to be a quick little language-learning update. It's been quite a busy month as it happens - I took a trip into Northumberland to my … Continue reading Taking the month off – a short update
So, cards on the table here... this isn't the post I'd had planned for this month, but it seemed kind of in bad taste to post that, given everything that's going on in the world. So I've relegated that until next month, and instead, I wanted to share a little impromptu check-in about my language-learning … Continue reading A short update
