Welsh is interesting, sometimes (a lot less when you do GCSE Literature) but fairly useless.
Literally the only thing I learnt in 8 years of welsh (albeit primary school level) was Mae hyn gymylog because that was all the weather was, ooh and bwrw glaw

It was probably roeddwn i'n and baswn i'n (or you had a very bad teacher).
Six whole carriages? We have two sometimes - and then the train splits at Machynlleth and one lone carriage is sent to Aber and the other to Pwllheli.
Yes! Although they give us the nice trains when NO ONE IS ON THEM. I couldn't handle one carriage with the amount of people that get on the train when I use it, it's crowded enough as it is!
I'm so glad I've seen this explain this to me because Welsh words have always just given me a headache.
I'll do all the vowels: A is pronounced like in cat (short) or in man (long - at least how I say it) E is pronounced like in pen (short) or in bear (long) I is pronounced like in tin (short) or in clean (long) O is pronounced like in song (short) or in sore (long) U is pronounced the same as I down south, or like German ü or French u up north W is pronounced like in book (short) or soon (long) Y is pronounced the same as I when it is in the last or only syllable, and like a cross between sun and book elsewhere (and in the words y, yr and yn)
Combinations of vowels: AE, AI and AU are usually pronounced like in time (although they may be pronounced like EA, EI and EU below) EA, EI and EU are usually pronounced like in game (although they may be pronounced like AE, AI and AU above) OE, OI and OU are pronounced like in toy WY is pronounced like a cross between "oo-ey" and "oi"
