Mutations

Welsh, like all the Celtic languages, has a system of mutations that helps make signal grammatical distinctions. This overview outlines all the words that cause mutations and talks about the phonetics of these sound changes. By learning a few simple rules, you’ll be able to correctly mutate every time.

Numbers

Ordinal, cardinal, feminine, masculine, decimal, traditional. Books on Welsh are full of these words. Here you’ll find some helpful grids outlining all the different number forms and when to use them. We’ll explain what all these forms are about and you can download a chart of numbers for free.

Yes & No

There’s no single pair of words for ‘yes’ and ‘no’ yn Gymraeg. Instead, the words for ‘yes’ and ’no depend on the kind of question we’re asked. When we say ‘yes’ and ‘no’ we usually have to use a form of the verb 'to be' and give information about time and person, just like we do with other verbs.
