Lesson 3 Part 2 - Talking about your family

 

Oes plant gyda chi? Have you any children?
Faint? How many?
   
Oes Yes
Nac oes No
Dim eto Not yet

Saying how many children you have
Mae ... gyda fi I have
   
merch a daughter
dwy ferch two daughters
tair merch three daughters
mab a son
dau fab two sons
tri mab three sons
   

Note - there there are two words for "two", three" and "four" in Welsh. If you are talking about something feminine - a daughter for instance, you should use dwy, tair and pedair. Don't worry too much about this for now though as it will only confuse you at this stage.

A further note - there is a letter change from m to f after dau and dwy.
