GIP and a request.

[castalia]

I have a small request of all you discerning icon fans out there. I've been wanting to do some sort of Welsh icon, and here is the fruit of my labors.



It's a manip of a map of Wales, the Welsh flag, and a Welsh sailing ship. The text is "'Sgynnoch chi Gymraeg?" which basically means "Got Welsh?" (the literal translation is "Is there Welsh with you?", since there isn't an actual verb "to have" in Welsh).

So, what do you think? Good, or should I try something else? Suggestions more than welcome.

Also, GIP. tiamatschild made me a lovely teacher icon, which I adore. Thanks, Nanni!

Well, as far as I've learned, to ask "Do you have..." is "Oes gynnoch chi...?". That's usually shortened to "'Sgynnoch chi...?". Have you come across another verb to use or another way to say this?

It sounds like what you're using is another way of saying the same thing, literally. I wonder if the "gynnoch" and "gyda" aren't related ... ?

It certainly looks like they might be. I haven't gotten to conjugations yet; the online course gives me situational usages, but not different verb forms yet. I think that's a few lessons ahead.

Does Catchphrase have units on conjugation?

I believe so -- they have everything. Have you gone to the lesson list (http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/catchphrase/catchphrase1/all.shtml) yet?

Oh my, that looks wonderful. And more sound files for me to download! Thanks very much.
