Gender

Cofiwch: In Welsh there is a feminine ei and a masculine ei (there is no literal equivalent to "it"). A treiglad llaes follows the feminine ei, and a treiglad meddal follows the masculine ei.

Edrychwch - look at the difference between these sentences:

Cafodd hi ei thalu am ei gwaith.t>thShe was paid for her work.
Cafodd hi ei chusanu.c>chShe was kissed.
Cafodd hi ei phenodi i'r swydd.p>phShe was appointed to the job.
Cafodd e ei dalu.t>dHe was paid for his work.
Cafodd e ei gusanu.c>gHe was kissed.
Cafodd e ei benodi i'r swydd.p>bHe was appointed to the job.
