Welcome to SSiW and welcome to the forum Gareth!
The forum is pretty huge with lots of tips and questions answered, so do have a browse or just jump right in to ask any questions about things that stump you - there’s almost always someone here to help, advise or encourage 
In my experience, this is one of the nicest, friendliest and most supportive online communities you’re likely to come across! Welcome!
As @siaronjames says, people here will be really happy to help with any questions whether specifically about the course, anything technical to do with the app and/or more generally about Wales and the Welsh language (and Siaron herself is one of the most prolific helpers 
)
Shwmae!
Ces i fy ngeni yng Nghymru yn wreiddiol a mi ges i fy magu yn Ne Cymru ger y cymoedd.
Symudais i Lyndain mewn dwy fil a chwech, neu ddwy fil a saith.
Dysgais i Gymraeg yn yr ysgol yn amlwg, ond yn anffodus, wi wedi anghofio fy Nghymraeg.
Penderfynais i ddysgu Cymraeg y llynedd eto, a fi’n mwynhau dysgu eto!
Fi’n defnyddio Duolingo a llyfrau i ddysgu.
Wi’n gobeithio y bydda i’n gwella dros amser, ond cawn ni weld!
My Welsh isn’t very good, but I hope that what I’ve said above is correct, grammatically, and that I’m understood and it isn’t too much of a mix of dialects!
Cofion Gorau!
Arwr.
Dw i’n trio dysgu Cymraeg achos …
I want to keep a connection with North Wales, as I stayed for 2 weeks every summer as a child with my Grandparents and Aunt in Abergele. They were English speakers, but I was always fascinated by Welsh signs and language. At my Aunt’s funeral a few years ago I was asked to read Psalm 23. She wanted the King James version, which I dutifully read. However one of the people there said it would have been nice if I had read it in Welsh. It had never occurred to me that I could actually learn Welsh! It always seemed such an impenetrable language. However, I eventually learned the Welsh version, and that journey brought me here to SSiW.
Rŵan … Mae gen i bobeth dw i angen
After 23 years I took a DNA test through Ancestry which led me to find out who my real dad was. We connected and started talking a lot. I saw that I had Welsh ancestry as my grandmother was Welsh. Through ancestry I started talking to my cousins who are a bit older and still speak Welsh.
I’m using SSiW to be able to connect to my roots and talk with my relatives. Have only used it a couple of days and I am finding it a lot of fun. I tried using duolingo first but this was not as effective or fun for me.
Thank you for these lessons and giving me a way to learn to communicate with my family.
Wow, that’s awesome!
Hi! I am a polish national, who has lived in Manchester for the last 11 years.
Following Pandemic and Brexit we were on the brink of moving back to the formal EU. Me and my partner had been going to Anglesey more and more in the recent years, mainly for the sea adventures and the wild nature and we decided to move to Wales.
The idea came this summer, but I am hot tempered, so judging by the map I decided Bangor will be our ideal new home and took one visit to confirm the choice. We are now waiting for the new home to become available.
Because of the move I thought it will be rude not to know the language and started learning but I find it more and more intriguing!
I must admit for starters that I found SaySomethingInWelsh through the App Marketplace, because Duolingo doesn’t have the talking exercises anymore. So I am using both platforms SSiW when I have the energy and want to progress and Duolingo for the fun of remembering some words.
Thank you for creating this awesome course and building a community around it!
