Are you ready to supercharge your Welsh listening comprehension?

Our podcast is the perfect tool for you. Studies show that the key to mastering a second language is through repetition and active processing.

That's why each episode of our podcast features a story in Welsh, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Welsh and English.

This approach not only allows you to fully understand and absorb the vocabulary and grammar but also provides a bilingual support to aid your listening comprehension. But we don't stop there.

Research in sociolinguistics highlights the importance of culture in language learning, which is why we provide a list of vocabulary words and a transcript of the audio to help you understand the cultural context of the story. And for your convenience, we also include a transcript of the audio to help you refer back to any parts you may have struggled with.

Our podcast is not just for language learners, it's also for travelers or people who wants to connect with their roots. Are you planning a trip to Caernarfon Castle, Snowdonia National Park, or St. Davids Cathedral? Maybe you want to speak Welsh with your grandparents from Cardiff?

Our podcast will provide you with the cultural and linguistic background needed to fully immerse yourself in regions where Welsh is primarily spoken, such as Wales and some parts of England. Our podcast is based on the latest research in linguistics, sociolinguistics,
psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience, and education to provide the most effective method for mastering Welsh listening comprehension.

Story Transcript:

Cy: Caeodd yr haul yn araf tu ôl i'r bryniau yn Eryri.
En: The sun slowly set behind the hills in Eryri.

Cy: Roedd dail yr hydref ar y coed yn goch, oren a melyn, yn arwain Dylan, Eira, a Gareth i fyny'r llwybr cul.
En: The autumn leaves on the trees were red, orange, and yellow, guiding Dylan, Eira, and Gareth up the narrow path.

Cy: Roedd awel oer yn chwythu, yn hatgoffa Dylan o'i gyfrifoldeb i gadw pawb yn ddiogel.
En: A cold breeze blew, reminding Dylan of his responsibility to keep everyone safe.

Cy: "Byddem yn gweld tân gwyllt anhygoel o'r copa," meddai Dylan, gwenu'n obeithiol at Eira a Gareth.
En: "We would see amazing fireworks from the summit," said Dylan, smiling hopefully at Eira and Gareth.

Cy: Roedd Eira yn llawn cyffro.
En: Eira was full of excitement.

Cy: Roedd hi am brofi i'w hun y gallai hi wynebu'r sialens hon.
En: She wanted to prove to herself that she could face this challenge.

Cy: Roedd angerdd yn llenwi ei llygaid wrth iddi symud ymlaen gyda phasau cadarn.
En: Passion filled her eyes as she moved forward with firm steps.

Cy: Ar y llaw arall, roedd Gareth yn edrych i lawr ar bob cam a gymerai, yn brwydro gyda'i ofn o uchder.
En: On the other hand, Gareth was looking down at every step he took, battling his fear of heights.

Cy: Roedd yn benderfynol o ddangos dewrder i'w ffrindiau, er gwaethaf ei ofn.
En: He was determined to show courage to his friends, despite his fear.

Cy: Wrth iddynt gerdded ymhellach, dechreuodd cymylau tywyll casglu ar draws y copaon.
En: As they walked further, dark clouds began to gather across the peaks.

Cy: Yna dechreuodd glawio'n drwm.
En: Then it started to rain heavily.

Cy: Gwnaeth y glaw y llwybr yn llithrig.
En: The rain made the path slippery.

Cy: Suddodd calon Gareth wrth iddo lithro a chwympo trwy'r llaid.
En: Gareth's heart sank as he slipped and fell through the mud.

Cy: Rhwystrwyd ei goes fel nad oedd yn gallu sefyll.
En: His leg was stuck so that he couldn't stand.

Cy: Roedd poen yn llifo trwy ei gorff.
En: Pain flowed through his body.

Cy: "Dylan!
En: "Dylan!"

Cy: " gwaeddodd Eira, ei llais yn cynnal tôn o frys.
En: cried Eira, her voice carrying a tone of urgency.

Cy: Rhedodd Dylan yn ôl at Gareth, a penlinodd wrth ei ochr.
En: Dylan ran back to Gareth and knelt by his side.

Cy: Cydiodd yn ei ffôn i ffonio am gymorth, ond nid oedd signal.
En: He grabbed his phone to call for help, but there was no signal.

Cy: Roedd angen gweithredu'n gyflym ac yn briodol.
En: They needed to act quickly and appropriately.

Cy: "Rhaid i ni fynd yn ôl yn ddiogel," meddai Dylan, yn gwneud penderfyniad cyflym.
En: "We have to go back safely," said Dylan, making a quick decision.

Cy: Roedd yn hysbys am lwybr arall a all fod yn fwy diogel, er gwaethaf y posibiliad o golli'r tân gwyllt.
En: He knew of another path that might be safer, despite the possibility of missing the fireworks.

Cy: Gwelodd Eira lwch o olau yn ei llygaid.
En: Eira saw a glint of light in his eyes.

Cy: Dywedodd, "Fe'i gwnaf fan hon gyda Gareth.
En: She said, "I'll stay here with Gareth.

Cy: Byddwn yn dawel.
En: We'll be alright."

Cy: "Roedd Gareth yn edrych mewn ofn ond diolchwyd iddo ar y ddau.
En: Gareth looked afraid but was grateful to both of...
