    This is the Welsh word which is used for 'I'. It is an abbreviated version of 'Rwyf yn', which is directly translated as 'I am'. Welsh grammar is different to English grammar, but for this phrase, the first word is the same. [1]
    • It is pronounced like 'ruin'.
    • Some Welsh pronounce the last part of the word differently due to regional dialects, but it is easier for beginners to stick with the Southern pronunciation (ruin).
    • When pronouncing this word, remember to pronounce it as one syllable rather than two.

    Different to the verb form 'caru', the noun form of 'love' is 'cariad'. But because the word follows 'fy', it mutates into 'nghariad'.
    • The 'ng' at the beginning of the word is pronounced like the end of 'hang'.
    • The 'hari' in the middle of the word is pronounced like the name 'Harry'.
    • 'ad' is pronounced like the 'add'.
    • Together, it should sound like, 'ng-harry-add'.
