Welsh language comedians? Digrifwyr yn Gymraeg
08/10/09 08:19:03PM, by Rebecca Redmile
I find the hardest thing about learning Welsh is the humour. Even "Stori'r Dydd" in the Eisteddfod, I'll be following along happily and all of a sudden the punchline will come, everybody's roaring with laughter in the Pabell Len, and I'm bewilderedly trying to figure out what was so funny. Maybe Welsh humour isn't like Canadian humour, but where can a learner get some good practice listening to it? And don't anybody write back and recommend the daily digest from Y Cynulliad!
Criteria for Indigenous Welsh status
03/22/13 10:44:19PM, by Anumpeshi Aduddell
I and my husband would like to determine if there is any interest among any of the Americymru members appertaining to developing a standard or set of criteria for recognition of Y Cymru or the Welsh people as an indigenous people. Although we are just beginning to explore our Welsh heritage we noticed that no such procedure exists although it would appear from our limited research that it should. The reasons are as follows:1) The Welsh originate historically from a Brythonic or pre-Brythonic...

You are all probably aware that there is a very acceptable Malt Whisky, alongScotslines, distilled at the villagePenderyn, which is near Merthyr and in the County Lines of Brecon? There's also a Brecon Gin produced there which is equally notable.But ... who has explored the origins of the American Whiskies and suchfamousnames as Jack Daniels and Evan Williams?It's worth a dig. You may discover that the Welsh Whiskey makers were driven out of Wales and that this factor was one of the original...

The Welsh Snow/Sand Castle Contest
01/13/09 04:53:03AM, by Ceri Shaw
With half the country under snow, we thought it would be fun to throw down the gauntlet in a photo contest challenge to who can create the best snow or sand castle (depending on your latitude) . The rules are pretty simple, make a castle/fort looking thing out of snow or sand, stick a Welsh flag on the top of it, take a picture and post it on this forum . If anyone fancies taking up the position of adjudicating the contest in exchange for offering a prize to the winner it would be...

05/04/16 04:59:46PM, by David Western
I'm interested in hearing from Welsh and non-Welsh alike to learn what, in your opinion, constitutes a good Welsh love -spoon. What do you believe are the features which must be present for it to be a lovespoon and do you feel the lovespoon tradition is one worth keeping?
