  • Course 3: The Future  Lesson Two / Gwers Dau


    Croeso yn ôl i Groeseiriau Cymraeg.

    In this week's lesson we will be revising the form of the future tense which we introduced last week. We will also be looking at the future perfect tense.

    To form the perfect tense - 'I will have , you will have' etc we simply substitute 'wedi' for 'yn'. This does not cause the verb to mutate. Examples:

    Dwi'n gwybod bydda i wedi gorffen erbyn hynny . - I know I will be finished by then.

    Bydda i wedi dysgu'r holl symudiadau. - I will have learned all the moves.

    Below you will find practice translation sentences and exercises together with this week's vocabulary crossword.

    Whatever you do....enjoy / mwynhewch.
