GMballistic Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 What... :scare: ...Need Gareth to translate.. First bit means; "Happy Christmas" and the second part either means "and a Happy New Year", ...or ioneabee's pi**ed already & fallen asleep on the keyboard. It's Welsh so it could quite reasonably be either. 4 Quote
Fodder Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 Poppdyping That's my favourite Welsh word, not sure the spelling is correct but I don't think it actually matters Work with a few Welsh speakers and you can tell when they aren't happy..... They talk in Welsh with a smattering of English expletives All the best to everyone no matter what your dialect is Quote

glrnet Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 I love the Welsh language, completely unintelligble to most of us and yet scattered with little gems like Gwesty (Hotel) and popty ping (microwave), not sure if I beleive the microwave version but still makes me smile. Happy Christmas Quote
350zedd Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 Used to wonder why all the beaches were called, "Traeth Beach" Quote

Happy Christmas My mothers not here to ask but pretty sure microwave is actually "microdon" in Welsh. Although my spelling of it might not be correct that's how it's pronounced I'm sure. Quote
glrnet Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 I think i prefer popty ping!! Microdon sounds like a small Welsh Godfather Quote

ioneabee Posted December 25, 2014 Author Posted December 25, 2014 Poppdyping - often used for microwave - but commonly accepted, its a made up word - microwave is actually meicrodon That's my favourite Welsh word, not sure the spelling is correct but I don't think it actually matters - true dat Work with a few Welsh speakers and you can tell when they aren't happy..... They talk in Welsh with a smattering of English expletives - unbelivably true All the best to everyone no matter what your dialect is 1 Quote
