How many letters is 'ch'?

in welsh both together are considered as one individual letter in the alphabet

@Llew woah I didn't know that. Cool

ye we also have 'dd' 'ff' 'ng' 'll' 'ph' 'rh' 'th'

that's so weird!

the 'ch' is pronounced like in the composer name Bach. The 'dd' sounds like the end of Bathe. 'Ff' is said like ur f. Our 'f' is said like ur v. 'Ng' is like like it is in Bang. 'Ph' sounds like an f. 'Th' is like Bath. 'Ll' does not sound like it does in Well. 'Rh' does not sound like it does in Rhino

that's so confusing XD

Oh my god dude you have to check out the should gay marriage be allowed thread... Some chick thinks the government is what makes people gay

What the hell?! What crowd?

go to public activity

👍👍 will do

i cant find it sorry 😢

Noooo

it's called "Do you believe gay marriage should be allowed???"

and some girl was saying that the government puts chemicals in fast food that make people gay to help with overpopulation

ill keep looking. What a fag though

hahaha I know! And then she said I wasn't intelligent enough to understand xD

Hahaha some people need to be slapped!!

When you go to activity and hit the public activity tab it should be right there...

Yea, a lot of people need to be slapped

im trying. While we're waiting tell her i call her an uneducated brat

oh yea she also said I'm uneducated lol I think she left now :/ but it's still worth reading I guess I win then... Ha!

Haha what a stupid person

haha 1 siwr iawn

wrth gwrs

fska ysme? I have no idea what's going on xD

we're speaking welsh 😄

It doesn't even look like a language... words without vowels? What is this?! XD

Cymraeg yw iaith y nefoedd. That means welsh is the language of heaven

haha alright then

it's a nice language. One of the oldest ones in europe. It's older than english by far

It seems really confusing. At least I can sound out French words I kinda wanna hear what Welsh sounds like... To the Internet!

Haha it sounds so fucked up on google translate and it doesn't translate correctly so dont trust it to much

Nah I looked it up on YouTube and it's glorious! XD it sounds so cool and the accent is awesome

ye the accent is pretty weird depending which region u come from. The welsh language has some of the best choir songs. One of the best is 'anfonaf angel' means i'll send an angel i suggest u look it up it's really beautiful

I'm usually not into choir songs but you're right, that was really pretty. The version I heard had some beautiful harmonizing and it's a really powerful song. I'd probably be even more moved by it if I knew what they're saying lol but that's alright

Your name is lion #GoogleTranslate 🐯 (closest thing to a lion, shut up)

Haha ye. I think it helps in wales we have the 'Eisteddfod' which is basically a welsh schools competition where u sing, play instruments or act. Our school normally does really well with the older mixed choir and the male choir we're almost always at least top three in wales

and ye Llew does mean lion. Thats just my nickname. My real name is Llywelyn but everyone calls me Llew bcuz it's shorter. Llywelyn means hero or leader. It's what many of the past kings of wales were called and the last

That's pretty sweet! My school does well in most competitions because we have a shizton of people so we have a lot of talent... That's not really impressive though lol Are you in the choir or anything?

Ye im in the older male choir and older mixed choir. It's quite an accomplishment for us with only 900 pupils

Your name is "bendigedig"! That's a name destined for greatness, man... I think mine just came from a movie

Damn! That's awesome!

did u just say my name is delightful? 😊

sorry i mean wonderful

Haha yes I did! I hope ☺

What are you in the choir ...like uhh... what are they called... I think ones called a tenor, ones called a baritone You know what I mean, which one?

im a bass. In ours we have either tenor which is higher and bass which is lower. I think baritone is a step deeper but we dont have them in the male choir because there wouldnt be enough of them

According to Wikipedia, from highest to lowest voice it goes: countertenor (never heard of it), tenor, baritone, bass

So apparently you have a really deep voice

Ooo my name means "admirable", apparently Not bad

oh that's pretty cool then. I always though baritone was deeper!!

Well bases in an orchestra are the lowest sounding instrument, so it makes sense that they're the lowest sounding voice too

i suppose!! I never gave much thought to it. Wbu? U sing or anything

I've played violin since I was 4 but I SUCK ASS at it #WorstInTheSchoolOrchestra and I try to teach myself guitar, which I also suck at... I really love music and music theory, I just don't have the talent for it

fair enough. I used to play drums but the guy kept pressuring me to do grades so i stopped. Can i just ask, what do u think of the new snapchat update?

I don't have a Snapchat but I'm thinking about getting one. Should I get it?

I always wanted to play drums since is as little. Now I wanna learn how to play the saxophone... Mainly just to play the solo in the song Money by Pink Floyd lol, but I think they sound really cool

ye snapchat is great i recommend it!!

My dad was a big pink floyd fan

Alright I will. My friend (blond chick in my profile pic) has been telling me to get a Snapchat forever so I'm sure she'll be happy I'll add you (if you're cool with that) and maybe Duchess and people have it too... Now I'm kinda excited! I can chat with people, hooray!

Well you dad has good taste in music I'm /obsessed/ with them. Pink Floyd = life

Haha im more queen myself personally

So when are you guys getting married? XD

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 Ooooh Duchess XD don't you know is already? October 11 of next year, gawd! You're supposed to be my bridesmaid, you should know this already! This is a joke. If anyone takes this seriously, you're officially mentally retarded.

@Llew You said that before, they're pretty awesome too, but not as awesome as the Floyd

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 Hey, do you have a Snapchat?

woah!! This marrige is off if u dont think queen is at least equally awesome to pink floyd!!

No one was, is, or ever will be as amazing as Pink Floyd! The Wall the movie is so awesome I watched it about 5 times, all their songs either bring a tear to my eye, make me sing along, or make me pissed off at society xD, and their music just sounds so fuckin cool!

ye but i mean... Freddie Mercury!!!!

They layer different instruments, voices, sounds, recordings, etc. in the most beautiful way, I can't even explain it. It's fucking amazing.

He is an amazing singer, yes. Definitely one of my favorite (maybe even my favorite, actually) voices of all time

But Pink Floyd, man. Pink Floyd.

@👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑 Lololol don't worry I'll be at the wedding.

And no I don't have a snapchat. Sorry 😖

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 You suuuuck!!! Haha naw it's okay, I'll live with only like 4 Snapchat friends XD

@👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑 Hahahaha the struggle is so real! XD

Hahaha indeed it is, man

oh by the way u said we have words without vowels, in welsh, 'w' is a vowel. We have a e i o u w y

Oooh alright. So you still need vowels in your words, yours are just different. Cool

Basically 👍👍

Tender

@Littlemix_lover123 what

One :') Welshie and proud☺️

wait... So in Welsh, how do you pronounce "ll"? I bet I've been reading your name wrong lol

probably. U cant describe the letter. Try and find it on google translate. Translate lion and listen to the sound at the beginning

how the hell do you even make that noise?! 😳 I did not expect that lol... I'm just gonna stick with "loo". Your name shall forever sound like the British term for a bathroom in my mind

hi girls

Guys

wow thanks. Its ok english speakers cant say my name properly

@maddy umm hello

Hi Llew

hi? Can i help you?

@maddy didnt u comment hi on another question we were talking on?

@Llew Haha I'm just messin' with you. I don't associate you with bathrooms, you're too cool for that. I only just made that connection. Us damn Americans can't do anything right tssk tssk

well i didnt want to say anything but... yeah

Hi mirandaknowswhatsup

@Llew I think she did. She's stalking us 😜

no I am just saying hi to u guys

what's up

@maddy Wazzup?

ok. Hi

hi

@Llew Did I offend you? :( Sorry, I didn't mean to... I mean that's not how you actually pronounce it, that's just me being retarded. Never take me seriously, I'm a dipshit xD

i was joking. I was making fun of americans in general

@Llew Oh alright, then were good! Ya know... I make fun of Americans and white people more than anything else, and I'm American and white. Im fucking weird xD

ohh ok so u r not American r u British

@maddy Why is the only thing you say "hi"? Talk to us dammit! 😁

oh look she said something while I typed that

I'm psychic

ye thats a bit fucked up. I normally mock americans (no offence) and english people

@maddy I'm American, he's Welsh

maybe u should pursue that as a job

Haha that'd be brilliant. I always wanted to go to a psychic... Don't get me wrong- I think it's all bullshit, but it'd be interesting

Ohh ok how r u guys

u r just sooo cute guys

ye. Why maddy? Are u british or american?

English people, really? They seem alright.

there is a hatred between wales and england

actually in sports, whatever country u are, when england play, everyone supports the other team

im ok thanks maddy. Wbu

I am not British not American

I wanna u guys think from where I am

what?

Oh. Well I think they both seem to have their shit together 👍 Is it an actual hatred thing or just a friendly competition kinda thing?

@maddy France

its an actual hatred thing between proper welsh people and english people

Ok no answer I am just gonna tell u from where I am I am from Arab country but I know English verrrrry we'll

dubai

Well that's dumb. It's stupid to hate people just because of the country they're in

@maddy Oh, that's cool. Do you like it where you're at?

no it's Yemen

@👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑 except that the oppressed welsh people for decades and tried to get rid of our native language which is one of the oldest in europe

look up the welsh not on google. They used it on schoolchildren who spoke welsh

yeah it's really interesting

@Llew Oh... Nevermind then xD That's retarded, that's getting rid of part of your culture. Wo says they have the right to do that? Not cool, not cool. And obviously oppression is just...wrong. #TeamWelsh You still shouldn't have anything against each individual person that lives there though. Just whoever supports that shit, which I'm sure isn't everyone

i dont know what it is but in a rugby competition, the six nations, (it's a massive thing here) everyone supports anyone BUT england. There is an advert on it and its hilarious

Well that's kinda fucked up... Although its just sports so it doesn't really matter. I kinda wanna hear the banter with England now, I bet some of it's pretty hilarious

well they stereotype us as sheep shaggers because there are a lot of sheep in wales. (Witty i know!!😐) so we just mock their ignorance

hey guys I am here

Can I ask a question but don't be sad

feel free to contribute to the convo then. Its a give and take thing goin on here

ask

@maddy Sure! Whatever you want

Can u change the conversation

what?? Why??

can we speak about anything else

The whole question centres around this topic

😟😟😟

Hahaha "shaggers" you people and your funny words. That is a pretty dumb insult...

@maddy Why? Is something wrong?

funny thing is they eat the lamb we supply and supposedly "shagged"

And I wanna tell u guys something u r verrrrry cute and kind

okay? I think?

@Llew hahaha that's hilarious

@maddy And what might that be?

Anything u want

What?

@maddy I'm confused. What do you want to tell us?

no there is nothing wrong but I am getting bored while u r talking about that conversation can u change it cuz I am really bored

U said u wanted to tell us something "cute and kind"

why dont u join in the conversation?

because I did not like the conversation and it's really boring

and u expect us to change it because u dont like it, even though there are countless convos goin on other places in this app?

Ok I will try to understand the conversation that u r talking about

im just saying u cant expect us to change topic cause u want to

no it's ok yeah I understand now

anyway miranda, do u not use the word shag in america?

@maddy If this kinda stuff doesn't interest you you can go comment on other stuff. I'm not trying to kick you out or anything, but I don't want you to stay if you're bored

keep on talking I will talk with u also I'm the same topic that u r talking about

no it's ok babe

@Llew Nope. Shag, wanker, snog, que, loo... I don't know any others on the top of my head lol

what about bastard?

We say that

oh ok. Is there any slang u use which we might not?

Umm I don't think so... I know what you guys call jelly is jello to us, and what you call jam is what we call jelly. And there's the pants vs. trousers thing. You also call cell phones mobiles. I don't think we have any slang terms that you guys don't, though

oh and you say "aluminum" really funny

al-uh-min-ee-um (phonetic)

our pants are ur underwear

uh-loo-muh-nuh-m

you add an extra syllable

in welsh it's al-ooh-min-ee-ooh-m

i like welsh phonetics

I like the welsh version the best ^.^ the British one is just weird

english. Not british

😡😡

Alright, English gawd

but mine is English too... Do I have to say English and American-English?

another reason why welsh people hate england is because everyone consider england as britain and discard wales amd scotland

u can just say american for urs since its what u guys say

well that's more of a reason to hate Americans than to hate England... We're the dumb ones lol

i cant explain it, its not that u hate english people u hate their country. That sounds mean but i camt explain it another way

But if we're talking about the language we say English. We don't call our language American, that'd be bullshit because we stole this language

i have no grudge against england or english people but i cant bring myself to support england

its ok english is a language which basically stole words from other languages

You only hate their country because you immediately associate it with this stuff and only think about that instead of the good things about it (which I would list if I knew, but I don't know shit)

@Llew Ehh English was inspired from other languages, not just flat-out stolen.

Hate maybe isnt the right word. I just dont support them and hope they fail in epic ways if they attempt stuff

That's pretty close to hate xD

i didnt mean stolen i mean took. The relationship between wales and england is hard to describe because u cant really like a country after they caned your young children for speaking ur language

I have no idea what caned means, but I'll just use my context clues and guess it means punished or something like it. Fair enough, I'd be pretty pissed about that too

its like hit someone with a stick. Did u not have that as a punishment a while go?

*ago

is that supposed to be a trick question or is 2 the right answer?

for me it's one. In welsh "ch, dd, ff, ng, ll, ph, rh, th" ar considered to be a single letter in the alphabet

we have more vowels as well. A E I O U W Y

@🎩Llew🎩 oh that's interesting so basically for u it's 1?

ye but if it's used in an english context like catch, it two letters. If it's used for chwarae (play) it's one letter

@🎩Llew🎩 oh okay that's so interesting !👍

it's not as complex as it might sound. Cool thing is, english is technically my second language even though i've been learning it for the same amount of time as english people

I feel like welsh is such a difficult language. Like I wish I could learn it but wow. It's a lot.

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 it is quite a difficult language to learn if u havent done it since u were young

we have this thing called, "treiglo" which has no translation to english because the english language doesnt do it

@🎩Llew🎩yeah. Was it hard for you to learn English? I've heard that's it's easy to learn from some people and I've also heard from others that it's hard

@🎩Llew🎩 cool

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 i learnt it when i started primary. Welsh and english are compulsory in the schools i've been in so i'm as fluent as any english person

@🎩Llew🎩wow. I'm jealous. I wish I was bilingual.

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 only problem is, welsh is only spoken in wales and patagonia

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 me too

and treiglo is very difficult to understand. People my age still struggle with it

@🎩Llew🎩well I'm learning german, and it's only spoken in Germany and Switzerland. And the Swiss have a different dialect.

@👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑 what language do you wanna learn?

@🎩Llew🎩 what is trieglo?

@DuchessJohanna yeah it's a bit like how americans speak english and british people speak english isnt it?

@🎩Llew🎩 sort of. A lot of the words are different though. I'd say the difference is a bit more than the difference of English in Britain and America.

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 okay. "Treiglo" is when the first letter of a word changes depending on the word before it. There are three different types. "Meddal"(soft), "Trwynol"(sinus?) and "llaes"(voice?)

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 Probably Spanish since half my friends speak it and their parents' can't speak English so it'd be useful to know

@👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑 nice. It's a very global language too.

@🎩Llew🎩 wow that's difficult

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 yea that's true

@🎩Llew🎩 I'm already confused XD

yeah it gets worse. With "meddal" the letter change like this C - G P - B T -D G - (disappears) B - F D - Dd Ll - L M - F Rh - R

"Trwynol" C - ngh P - mh T - nh G - ng B - m D - n

llaes C - ch P - ph T - th

thats all fine its just knowing when to use them is a bitch

Is there a reason for this Treiglo thing, or is it just how it is? because it seems unnecessarily confusing

@👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑 there is a reason. The words sound unnatural to us if u don't use it correctly

its too complex for english people so they don't do it

oh okay, French has some little rules to make it flow better and sound prettier, so I guess it's kinda like that

ye it's a bitch but it must be done

1 letter

I can speak English German Italian and a little French x

@MeganChelseaT 🙅🙅🙅

@MeganChelseaT Really? You can go to that school in Switzerland cause you need to be able to speak all them languages.. Thats cool👍

So cool 👐

@MickeyCat(Sakanaru) and Peyton thank you ☺️

@MeganChelseaT Only the true so so so cool 😆

@MeganChelseaT Wie viele Deustch sprechen Sie? (Hope I said that right)

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 that doesn't make sense! 😂 xx

@MeganChelseaT how much german do you speak? 😑

How does that not make sense? Any decent german speaker could understand that.

Even a fucking beginner

I was just in Germany, and I had that question asked to me. So clearly it's not incorrect.

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 but I don't understand it. We learn German in skl and I can speak lots and lots very fluently, maybe the grammar isn't correct.? Xx

@MeganChelseaT uh, yeah, it is. My mother speaks german fluently.

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 ok x

well this is awkward...

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 well German is also spoken in Luxemburg and Lichtenstein! By the way I understand your geman question but gramatically it is totally wrong.

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 and calling me dumb is really stupid, because I speak 4 languages perfectly.

@noe there are different forms for each language. If u were to write a question in welsh it could be seen as wrong by some because in different areas they speak it differently

@noe oh suck a dick you ugly cunt

@🎩Llew🎩 well German is the same in these different areas, it's just the accent that changes a little. Like in Switzerland for example. The pronounce it differently and sometimes I hardly understand what they say,but the grammar is the same.

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 nice try pissing me off again bitch

she might've written it as u say it. Thats hows it done in welsh so it might happen in german

Well she said: wie viele Deutsch sprechen Sie. Which would be : how many german do you speak. The correct way to say it would be: Sprechen Sie gut Deutsch/ Sprechen Sie öfters oder viel Deutsch.

@noe look cunt, I'm learning. I'm not perfect in any way, and I never claimed to be. And no, german has different dialects if you knew anything. It's spoken slightly differently in Bavaria in comparison to the northern cities like Hamburg. So fuck off.

@noe my grandmother was born in Germany, so german is in my family. My school doesn't offer german classes, so I have to learn on my own. So fuck off and die in a hole

@👊Duchessjohanna👊 well I didn't offend you bitch I only corrected you, the way you correct me in english. English is not my first language, not my second and not even my third but it's my fourth, so please exuse me if I'm not perfect at writing properly, bitch!
