..are there any other Welsh speakers out there, who have married a non-Welsh speaker and have children born here that they have a hard time teaching 'yr Iaith'.? My wife was born in northern Ireland to American parents; she would love for me to teach them Welsh, but I find it difficult in my every day schedule to do it. They know some basic phrases, but I feel like they will never have even a basic grasp of the language...being from Ynys Mon I would love it if they could retain some aspect of Welsh..any suggestions? PS Carwyn Edwards, did you ever play rugby at Bodedern secondary under Dai Long? if so we may have played against each other (Syr Thomas Jones vs Ysgol Bodedern), and for Gwynedd U16's down in Newport?
