Our podcast is the perfect tool for you. Studies show that the key to mastering a second language is through repetition and active processing. That's why each episode of our podcast features a story in Welsh, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Welsh and English. This approach not only allows you to fully understand and absorb the vocabulary and grammar but also provides a bilingual support to aid your listening comprehension. But we don't stop there. Research in sociolinguistics highlights the importance of culture in language learning, which is why we provide a list of vocabulary words and a transcript of the audio to help you understand the cultural context of the story. And for your convenience, we also include a transcript of the audio to help you refer back to any parts you may have struggled with. Our podcast is not just for language learners, it's also for travelers or people who wants to connect with their roots. Are you planning a trip to Caernarfon Castle, Snowdonia National Park, or St. Davids Cathedral? Maybe you want to speak Welsh with your grandparents from Cardiff?

En: In the middle of the busy campus of Prifysgol Tech Abertawe, a few daisies fluttered across the flower gardens. Cy: Roedd yr aer yn chwim a braf, yn ddiweddar wedi clirio o law mis Mawrth. En: The air was brisk and pleasant, recently cleared of March rain. Cy: Roedd yr ŷd hynod ar y campws, a’r adeiladau siâp modern yn creu cyferbyniad gyda’r blodau newydd. En: The unique cornfield on the campus, and the modern-shaped buildings created a contrast with the fresh flowers. Cy: Roedd Eira yn eistedd yn y llyfrgell, llyfrau wedi'u taenu o'i chwmpas. En: Eira was sitting in the library, books scattered around her. Cy: Roedd ei chalon yn curo'n sydyn. En: Her heart was pounding quickly. Cy: Roedd gwyddoniaeth cyfrifiadurol yn ei hanadl diweddaraf.

Nid yn unig i basio’r arholiadau terfynol ond i sicrhau interniaeth breintiedig yn y cwmni tech enwog oedd hi’n breuddwydio gweithio iddo. En: She had to perform well—not only to pass the final exams but to secure the prestigious internship at the famous tech company she dreamed of working for. Cy: Yn ei chiw terfynol, roedd pryder yn rhwystro ei chanolbwyntio. En: In her final queue, anxiety was hindering her focus. Cy: Craciodd bysedd ei dwylo o dan y bwrdd. En: She cracked her fingers beneath the table. Cy: Roeddent yn oerni, fel iâ y bore cyntaf y gwanwyn.
