Thread: Heddiw dda i chi o Gymru (Good day to you from Wales)

croeso MrPeters, of Welsh descent as well, you are in the right place to learn the art, and the right age too. It is a big learning curve, but worth the effort. There are a lot of top members here only too willing to help.

Diolch yn fawr i chi Mr Grazor! Awesome to see yet another Welsh person on these forums! Well I'm at the prime age to take on such a learning task, i don't think of it as a learning curve but more of a learning hill, it's a small hill but very steep; either way i think of it i know it will be a great challenge! But that's part of the art, that's part of the beauty and to be honest, it will bring me close to my razor so it's win win win!

Sorry got a bit carried away, I am not even Welsh, but I am half Irish. And I lived pretty close to Wales for a long time.

Don't think anyone's going to mind Ed :P Your Irish? Just across the pond really then aren't you, not far at all, always wanted to visit Ireland funnilly enough! I think by train from my home town to get to Cork it's only £40, can't really go wrong.

My dad (well sperm donor to all intents and purposes) was from southern Ireland ( cork I think), so rchnically I am half Irish, but I don't think I can really claim the lineage, dont want to fall into the plastic paddy camp.

Здравствуйте, г-н Петерс! Hello and Welcome Mr. Peters ! Welsh/Scottish heritage Yank here. Big Slavophile and also Part Hobbit. Don't really drink much, but love a good Cider. Also speak very little Russian but cheated and used the Google translator ha ha. Had to fit in you understand. Big Hobbit welcome though.

I wonder what an actual Russian would translate that as. Speaking of online translators, in my last job I had to try and contact a customer, after calling the number I had for them, a Spanish lady answered, so I managed a conversation of sorts using the online translator to do the work, it was painful, but I am pretty sure I found out how to contact who I was after.

It merely translates as Hello Mr. Peters............
