Fe fyddwn i'n mynd mi fyddwn i'n mynd; Fe faswn i'n mynd or mi faswn i'n mynd
The short forms fe hoffwn i or mi hoffwn i
Fe ddylwn i or mi ddylwn i
Generally, but not exclusively Fe is used in South Wales and Mi is used in north Wales
These forms effectively have no meanings and often do not feature in speech. Note however that when this happens the soft mutation remains - for example
Welais i'r bachgen Fydda i yna rwan Ddylet ti fynd.
In more formal Welsh these verbs are not mutated.
Gwelais i Bydda i Dylwn i Fe and Mi are used sometimes to emphasise a verb for example Mi fydda i'n mynd I will be going, Mi welais i or I did see him.
That seems quite a lot to say about two small little words.
Pa fath o
When Brian says that he is going to meet Jac Whelan Wendy asks:Pa fath o fusnes
Pa fath o means What kind of
Here are some more examples
Pa fath o ddillad wyt ti'n wisgo? - What kind of clothes do you wear? Pa fath o ffilmiau wyt ti'n wylio? - What kind of films do you watch? Pa fath o fwyd wyt ti'n fwyta? - What kind of food do you eat?
Pa un
Pa un which in speech is shortened to Pun means simply which one
Pun wyt tin hoffi? - Which one do you like? Pun ydy dy got di - Which one is your coat? Pun welodd e - Which one did he see?
