Yn cyflwyno’r Welsh Language Vowel Locator.

This new web app is a fun way to learn that there are vowels in the Welsh language, despite what some online commentators insist!

It’s another one in the occasional series #GorauArfArfDysg.

Here are some of the recent tweets:

Note to anglophones, ‘w’ and ”y’ are vowels in Welsh. In fact, we fail to see how they can be anything other than vowels.

I mean, how can you possibly see or hear ‘w’ (oo, u in English) & ‘y’ (the schwa) as consonants? No really, how? 🤔

‘h’ also sometimes counted as vowel https://t.co/DEO55h2qGy
