Yes. And although I can’t remember a word of what I said except Datblygu and SSiW, they said it was ok, so…I guess they know!
Wow, you’ve already done it! Well done!!
Oh you know, I’m not very often in Wales!
The good side of doing it the morning after I arrived is that from then on I could stop being anxious about it and just enjoy the holiday.
The bad side is that I flew in right after hearing mostly French for two days, so my brain was quite in language confusion. Now I’d speak much better, after practicing for a few days…but well it will do anyway!
I’m sure you did it brilliantly! I can’t wait for the programme, it’ll be a bit of an SSIW takeover!!
Thank you to all of you who responded to this request - and the programme is going out on Monday night! Rhaglen Rhys Mwyn.
He’s asking for learners to send in requests over email - rhysmwyn@bbc.co.uk
Tell anyone you think may fancy it!
Damn, been so busy lately I completely forgot to get back in touch about this!
Ah well, I’ll look forward to hearing the programme.
I know @gisella-albertini will have flown the flag for Datblygu, so I consider myself represented in a way!
P
Don’t forget to get your requests in to Rhaglen Rhys Mwyn for TONIGHT! Let’s make sure he hears from lots of SSiWers
The programme is on Radio Cymru between 7 and 10pm.
Well, it’s good to remind to send out requests, but as far as I know it’s a bit early to hear it - it will be aired on October 14th for the learners week!
That makes sense to me, but I got the impression from @beca-brown above that it was going to be tonight. Maybe she meant “on a Monday night” at some time, not the Monday after she posted
Oh yeah, you’re right if I read @beca-brown 's post I get the impression she’s referring to THIS Monday night.
Maybe she got counfused herself after Rhys Mwyn’s tweet the other day that wasn’t too clear!
But, let’s say, I have reason to believe that the right date is October the 14th.
Sorry guys - it was Rhys’s tweet that confused me!! It gave the impression that it was on tonight, or I read it that way - one of the two! So plenty of time to get your requests in…!
Yeah just heard @gisella-albertini clip in the radio tonight - with Datblygu - brilliant well done Gisella!
Awww, thanks. I still can’t listen to myself without feeling overwhelmed by embarrassment, so I can’t judge!
Maybe in a few days!
Hey, great to hear that @Novem joined the lot. Very fluently, as always.
And as usual on BBC Cymru, disguised as the lethal Russian spy Kai Saranchenko!
No way!
By the way, here’s the link to the show.
For our fans
I’m around min. 33 (very concise!)
Kai towards the end, about 2 hrs 46 min in (definitely extended my model interview )
p.s. diolch @beca-brown for the contacts, it was fun, after all!
Listened back to the show earlier today while working from home (well, I was at home with a work laptop in my vicinity - I mean, working really hard). Great stuff @gisella-albertini and @Novem. And wonderful to hear “Braidd” by Datblygu (and snippets of “Hollol X 3”, among others)!
Hey I had missed it first time I’ve listened to the programme, but there’s actually also @shaun speaking around min 50. And very fluent indeed!
Llongyfarchiadau, Shaun!
Looks like I’m the only one who did quite a mess of Welsh language on the radio.
But oh well, maybe a bunch of learners will realize that if someone like me could dare speaking, anyone can!
p.s. I guess @nigelh meant BBC not Beeb
