Happy St. Davids Day - Even those of you descended from the Goddoddin

Twll Din Bob Sais and other appropriate greetings
 
GAH!!!... Can someone give me a breakdown of how you'd even pronounce the title of this thread?!
 
Something like....

Deeth Gooyl De-wee Sant

With a few pointers:

"th" is a soft "th", as in "the" NOT "thursday".

Some people would say Gwill instead of Gooyl.

"De" in Dewi would be pronounced like a sharp "e", as in "end", not the kind of "e" you find in "they".

Some people make the "S" in Sant sound more like a "Z".
 
I've ony ever heard this up in the north. In the south and mid they all tend to ronounce it properly

Em
 
Happy St Davids Day - my daughters had Eisteddfod in school yesterday and isn't it typical my youngest(4) normally stands on the stage and dosen't make a sound, but yesterday i was unable to go as i was in work, and she wins a certificate for 3rd place soloist and other parents said she sang her heart out! Gutted i missed it.
