Cwisys Cymraeg (Wlpan a Pellach)

Gwnes i cwisys i helpu dysgwyr gyda Cwrs Wlpan a Cwrs Pellach hefyd. Mae'r cwisys yma yn helpu gyda dysgu geirfa. Yn gobeithio byddwn i'n gallu gwneud cwisys am berfau a brawddegau hefyd.
I have created quizzes to help learners with Course Wlpan and Course Pellach also. These quizzes help with learning vocabulary. Hopefully I will be able to create quizzes about verbs and sentences also.

Mindfulness In Plain English

"This book is a 'How to.' It is written for those who actually want to meditate and especially for those who want to start now."

Sticking with Windows XP in a Windows Vista World

"In the interests of complete disclosure, there are definitely important new features in Windows Vista that you just can't get anywhere else. But for many XP users--and let's face it, we're talking about several hundred million people here--there's no need to upgrade to Windows Vista right away. To stave off the sense of loss that might accompany any decision to hold off on that upgrade, I hope this list of applications and services helps."

Mutations

Mutations

What do you think of them? Here's one persons view:

"I'm giving up on learning this language", exclaimed the learner, frustrated. "These mutations are doing my head in". "For example,
't' in 'create' becomes 'sh' in 'creation';
'f ' in 'belief' becomes 'v' in believes';
'd' in 'extend' becomes 'sh' in 'extension';
'x' in 'crux' becomes 'sh' in 'crucial';
's' in 'house' becomes 'z' in 'housing'
though sometimes the spelling changes even though the sound doesn't, e.g. 's' and 'c' in 'mouse' and 'mice' respectively".

"While I'm on the subject, what about
the 'd' in 'sound' which disappears in 'sonorous';
the 'pt' in 'receipt' becomes 'v' in receive;
the 'b' in 'prescribe' becomes 'p' in 'prescription';
the 'v' in 'twelve' becomes 'f' in 'twelfth"

"Do you know, I think I'll start learning Welsh". "At least with Welsh the mutations follow clearly defined rules!"

Teachings of the Horse

"Time and the horses have taught me some valuable lessons. I hope that I can share what I learn with other horse lovers and help people take the time to look at the world from the horse's point of view."
