Dwdl

Oops, it's been a month. Have an owl, or a gwdihw if you prefer. Gwdihw is one of the Welsh words for owl and it's pronounced goo-dee-hoooo, like the sound an tawny owl makes. Welsh is an ace language. My beginners' WLpan course is nearly over and I'll soon be enrolling on the next course up. Gwych!



Other brilliant words for animals: 
bochtew (fat cheek) = hamster.
Dwrci (water dog) = otter
Llygoden ffyrnig (fierce mouse) = rat
Moch daear (earth pig) = badger.
