-I'm Ashok Ahir and I was a finalist -of Welsh Learner Of The Year 2012. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:14 | |
-Originally from Wolverhampton... | 0:03:17 | 0:03:20 | |

-Ashok, thank you for the -warm welcome to your wonderful home. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:35 | |
-We last met on the cariad@iaith set. -Did you enjoy it? | 0:03:35 | 0:03:39 | |
-Yes, it was -quite a special experience. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
-Not only because I got to work -with people like you... | 0:03:42 | 0:03:46 | |
-..but also because -I got to go behind the camera. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
-I'm used to working behind -the camera but not in front of it. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:54 | |
-It was interesting to be behind -and in front of the camera. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:58 | |
-It was also great to be part of -a series for fellow learners. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:03 | |
-Why did you learn Welsh -and when did you do that? | 0:04:05 | 0:04:08 | |
-My wife comes from Aberystwyth -originally and she speaks Welsh. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:15 | |
-It wasn't really an option -for me not to learn Welsh. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:20 | |
-Our oldest child -is almost 13 years old... | 0:04:22 | 0:04:26 | |
-..so I decided about ten years ago -that I had to try to learn Welsh. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:32 | |
-The time came when we decided -to stop speaking English at home... | 0:04:34 | 0:04:38 | |
-..and make Welsh -the language of our home. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:41 | |
-How did you do that? | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
-Do you have any tips for learners? | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
-I was the person -who had to push for it. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
-Everyone else in the house -spoke Welsh. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
-I asked them not to turn to English -when we had Sunday lunch... | 0:04:52 | 0:04:57 | |
-..but to carry on speaking Welsh. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
-Everyone accepted that. -It wasn't a problem. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
-If you don't give people a chance -to do that, it won't happen. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:08 | |
-You, as a learner, must give them -permission to carry on in Welsh. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:13 | |
-Was Learner Of The Year -a good experience? | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
-Yes, and a chance to show everyone -I'd reached a certain level... | 0:05:17 | 0:05:21 | |
-..and that I was confident enough -to speak Welsh in public. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:26 | |
-It's like a public declaration. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
-I'm learning Welsh. -Speak Welsh with me. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:31 | |
-People came up to me and said they -had no idea I was learning Welsh. | 0:05:32 | 0:05:37 | |
-People I've known for 15 years. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:39 | |
-That was the biggest step of all. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |

-Does the ability to speak different -languages help you in your work? | 0:06:27 | 0:06:32 | |

-Indian food is my favourite cuisine. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:21 | |
-We started -by preparing the vegetables. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:26 | |
-Is Indian food -and Punjabi food the same? | 0:13:28 | 0:13:33 | |

-The only people in India -who make masala sauces... | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
-..are people in the north. | 0:13:58 | 0:13:59 | |
-Punjabis, in other words. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:02 | |
-When I cook a curry, I always start -with onions, garlic and ginger. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:07 | |
-That's the base for any curry. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:13 | |
-I remember being in the kitchen -when I was a child... | 0:14:13 | 0:14:17 | |
-..with my mother -and my grandmother... | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
-..helping out with chopping onions -or crushing chillies and ginger. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:28 | |
-I learned by watching them. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:32 | |

-We reply to Papa's Punjabi in Welsh. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:26 | |

-If you want to say 'my name is'... | 0:15:35 | 0:15:38 | |

-What about your wedding? | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
-What about your wedding? - -We had two wedding ceremonies. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:44 | |
-The first was a traditional, -Welsh ceremony... | 0:16:44 | 0:16:47 | |
-..but with a strong Indian flavour. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:50 | |
-It was held in my chapel -in Aberystwyth. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:53 | |
-There were chillies on the windows -and in the flower arrangement. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:58 | |
-We included quite a few readings -in the service. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:02 | |
-At some point -during the wedding breakfast... | 0:17:02 | 0:17:05 | |
-..all the aunties on Ashok's side -took over and they started to dance. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:10 | |
-They made their own music -and started to sing. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:15 | |
-We had a jazz band, but they decided -to ignore it for a while! | 0:17:15 | 0:17:19 | |
-We ended up with half an hour -of jazz and half an hour of Bhangra. | 0:17:20 | 0:17:24 | |
-It was a mixture of both -and it was fantastic fun. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:28 | |
-It was a blend of everything but it -was really colourful and wonderful. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:33 | |
-Two wedding days? Perfect! | 0:17:34 | 0:17:37 | |
-Two wedding days? Perfect! - -Two outfits, mind you. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:39 | |
-Obviously! | 0:17:39 | 0:17:41 | |
-Full to bursting with tasty food, -we went for a walk in the park. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:48 | |
-We're walking -through Pontcanna Fields... | 0:17:48 | 0:17:51 | |
-..which are very close to your home. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:54 | |
-Yes - just down the hill. | 0:17:55 | 0:17:56 | |
-Do you come here often? | 0:17:57 | 0:17:58 | |
-Yes, I'm here every weekend. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:01 | |
-The boys play rugby - -one over there and one over here. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:07 | |
-They play for different clubs, -so there's competition in the house. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:13 | |
-They're arch rivals! | 0:18:13 | 0:18:15 | |
-Do you think Cardiff is a nice city? | 0:18:17 | 0:18:20 | |
-Yes, and that's one of the reasons -we're bringing up our children here. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:25 | |
-It's a perfect city for families but -it's also great for young people. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:30 | |
-I first came to Cardiff -to study at the university. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:34 | |
-It's a brilliant city for students. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:37 | |
-There's plenty to do... | 0:18:37 | 0:18:39 | |
-..and plenty of places to go out -without having to travel far. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:43 | |
-I didn't have a car when I was -a student, so I walked everywhere. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:48 | |
-It's big enough... | 0:18:48 | 0:18:50 | |
-..but it's also small enough -to have a community feel. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:54 | |
-Yes, and since my student days -I've crossed the bridge... | 0:18:54 | 0:18:58 | |
-..from east to west Cardiff. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:01 | |
-When you live and work in Cardiff... | 0:19:04 | 0:19:07 | |
-..you see the city -in a totally different light... | 0:19:07 | 0:19:11 | |
-..from your student days. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:13 | |
-It's nice to have a cuppa -after our walk. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:21 | |
-Ashok, tell me about -your original home. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:25 | |
-Wolverhampton. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:27 | |
-When we moved to Britain, -we all lived in one house. | 0:19:28 | 0:19:32 | |
-We moved here as a family, -with Mum and Dad... | 0:19:34 | 0:19:38 | |
-..and we lived around the corner -from my grandparents' house. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:45 | |
-Were you a large family? | 0:19:45 | 0:19:46 | |
-Were you a large family? - -I have two brothers and one sister. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:49 | |
-Do your parents -still live in Wolverhampton? | 0:19:50 | 0:19:53 | |
-Yes, but they spend half their time -in Wolverhampton and half in Punjab. | 0:19:54 | 0:20:00 | |
-Tell me about life out there. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:02 | |
-Do you visit regularly? | 0:20:02 | 0:20:04 | |
-Do you visit regularly? - -Yes, we go every other year. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:06 | |
-That's how it's been -since we've had children. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:10 | |
-It's a bit strange -because I left when I was three... | 0:20:10 | 0:20:14 | |
-..and I didn't go back -until I was something like 27. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:18 | |
-After that, I went every year, then -every other year with the children. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:23 | |
-That's what we aim for. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:29 | |
-Would you ever go back -to live in India? | 0:20:30 | 0:20:32 | |
-Do you feel pulled there? | 0:20:33 | 0:20:34 | |
-Do you feel it's your home... | 0:20:35 | 0:20:37 | |
-..or is this your home? | 0:20:38 | 0:20:39 | |
-I have different elements of 'home' -in different places... | 0:20:40 | 0:20:44 | |
-..but Cardiff is my home. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:46 | |
-Ashok, tell me what three things -you'd save from a fire. | 0:21:00 | 0:21:04 | |
-The first item is in the corner. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:09 | |
-It's an old record player. | 0:21:10 | 0:21:12 | |
-It's an HMV model from the 1920s. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:16 | |
-I like it because -it plays my old jazz 78s. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:20 | |
-I'm always on the lookout -for more 78s... | 0:21:21 | 0:21:24 | |
-..but it plays the ones I do have -perfectly. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:27 | |
-Has it been in your family -since the 1920s? | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
-Well, it was a present -from a family member. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:41 | |
-He found it on eBay -and gave it to me! | 0:21:41 | 0:21:43 | |
-What's the second thing? | 0:21:44 | 0:21:46 | |
-It's a bit big and it's upstairs. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:49 | |
-Come upstairs to see it. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:50 | |
-Come upstairs to see it. - -No problem. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:51 | |
-This is my gentleman's compendium. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:57 | |
-This is my gentleman's compendium. - -A wardrobe designed for men? | 0:21:57 | 0:21:59 | |
-Yes, the idea of the compendium -dates back to Victorian times... | 0:21:59 | 0:22:04 | |
-..but this is Edwardian, -which is the same era as the house. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:10 | |
-It fits in. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:11 | |
-Can I take a peek inside? | 0:22:11 | 0:22:13 | |
-Yes, if you like. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
-Hey! A hanging rail for suits. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:19 | |
-The shoe section. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:21 | |
-The shoe section. - -Yes, plus my sports kit. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:23 | |
-A modern gentleman's compendium -includes a gym kit! | 0:22:23 | 0:22:27 | |
-These are the drawers -and this is the part I really like. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:31 | |
-It's like being -in an old clothes shop. | 0:22:31 | 0:22:34 | |
-The drawers pull out. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:38 | |
-Even the ones made later than -this period include four drawers. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:43 | |
-It's a lovely compendium. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:47 | |
-Good luck carrying that out! | 0:22:51 | 0:22:53 | |
-Good luck carrying that out! - -It was carried in here, in sections. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:56 | |
-I could get it out, -depending where the fire is! | 0:22:57 | 0:23:00 | |
-My third item is down here. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:02 | |
-That's nice. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:08 | |
-Ashok and Manon's wedding, -2nd of September 2000. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:12 | |
-Was it a present? | 0:23:12 | 0:23:14 | |
-Yes, from the artist Bethan Clwyd, -who's one of Manon's best friends. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:19 | |
-She took inspiration -from our wedding day to create this. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:23 | |
-Manon's dress was a combination -of a Punjabi bridal lehenga... | 0:23:24 | 0:23:29 | |
-..and a Welsh wedding dress. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
-It was gold coloured. | 0:23:35 | 0:23:37 | |
-We wore blue shirts. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:39 | |
-That's where the blue is from. | 0:23:39 | 0:23:42 | |
-The green comes from Ceredigion. | 0:23:43 | 0:23:46 | |
-We had our wedding party -at Ty Nanteos Mansion... | 0:23:46 | 0:23:50 | |
-..following the wedding service -in the centre of Aberystwyth. | 0:23:50 | 0:23:55 | |
-That's lovely -and it's really personal too. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:59 | |
-I had a great day -with you and your family. Thank you. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:03 | |
-I had a warm welcome -from Ashok Ahir and his family. | 0:24:14 | 0:24:17 | |
-Join me next time to spend time -at home with another famous face. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:22 | |
-Until then, goodbye. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
-. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:25 | |

-I'm Mioko and I come from Japan. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:42 | |
-I live in Cardiff. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:46 | |
-I'm learning Welsh. | 0:24:51 | 0:24:52 | |
-My husband is Welsh. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:55 | |
-We have two daughters. | 0:24:56 | 0:24:58 | |
-My husband -speaks Welsh to our daughters. | 0:25:00 | 0:25:06 | |
-That's why -I need to be able to speak Welsh. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:11 | |
-I feel -it's difficult to learn Welsh. | 0:25:17 | 0:25:19 | |
-My husband and our daughters -speak excellent Welsh. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:25 | |
-I don't always understand -what they're saying. | 0:25:26 | 0:25:31 | |
-They just talk very quickly. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:35 | |
-It's really difficult -to keep up with what they're saying. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:40 | |
-I wanted to learn Welsh -when I lived in Japan... | 0:25:45 | 0:25:49 | |
-..but it was quite difficult -to get a source of Welsh... | 0:25:51 | 0:25:55 | |
-..when I was in Japan. | 0:25:56 | 0:25:57 | |
-I found out -that somebody was looking for... | 0:25:58 | 0:26:02 | |
-..a Welsh - Japanese -language exchange partner. | 0:26:03 | 0:26:07 | |
-I thought, "Great!" | 0:26:08 | 0:26:09 | |
-That's when I saw my husband -for the first time. | 0:26:13 | 0:26:16 | |
-I learned Welsh from him. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:22 | |
-We got married afterwards. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
-My first impression of Wales... | 0:26:37 | 0:26:39 | |
-..was there are a lot of parks -and spaces here. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:43 | |
-There aren't many spaces in Japan. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:47 | |
-The advice I give is to be in that -environment as much as possible. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:58 | |
-My husband and my daughters -speak Welsh at home. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:04 | |
-I hear it all the time. | 0:27:06 | 0:27:08 | |
-To be soaked -in that language... | 0:27:09 | 0:27:12 | |
-..helps you speak Welsh yourself. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:15 | |
-But I also -need to attend Welsh classes... | 0:27:23 | 0:27:28 | |
-..as well as speaking the language -at home. | 0:27:32 | 0:27:35 | |
-That's important as well. | 0:27:37 | 0:27:39 | |
-I think both sides. | 0:27:40 | 0:27:42 | |
-Learning on paper... | 0:27:43 | 0:27:45 | |
-..and learning at home by talking to -people who speak that language. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:52 | |
-I'm Phillip Moore. | 0:28:19 | 0:28:21 | |
-I'm a consultant surgeon... | 0:28:22 | 0:28:26 | |
-..at Ysbyty Gwynedd. | 0:28:27 | 0:28:28 | |
-I specialize -in ear, nose and throat. | 0:28:30 | 0:28:33 | |
-Does your throat feel better now? | 0:28:37 | 0:28:39 | |
-Yes. It's dry and I'm coughing. | 0:28:39 | 0:28:42 | |
-OK. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:44 | |
-Does your nose become blocked? | 0:28:45 | 0:28:48 | |
-Does your nose become blocked? - -Yes, and it's runny. | 0:28:48 | 0:28:49 | |
-I come from Barbados originally. | 0:28:50 | 0:28:53 | |
-Barbados is a small island -in the Caribbean Sea. | 0:28:54 | 0:29:00 | |
-I moved to Britain in 1996. | 0:29:01 | 0:29:06 | |
-I've been working in Britain... | 0:29:12 | 0:29:15 | |
-..for about 13 years. | 0:29:17 | 0:29:19 | |
-I'd never worked in Wales. | 0:29:26 | 0:29:28 | |
-I had an opportunity -to come and work here... | 0:29:32 | 0:29:37 | |
-..back in 2010. | 0:29:38 | 0:29:40 | |
-I've fallen in love with the place. | 0:29:43 | 0:29:47 | |
-I've been learning Welsh -since October 2010. | 0:29:52 | 0:30:01 | |
-The most difficult thing -about learning Welsh... | 0:30:06 | 0:30:12 | |
-..is the mutations. | 0:30:13 | 0:30:15 | |
-I wanted to learn Welsh -for two reasons. | 0:30:22 | 0:30:25 | |
-Number one, I wanted a challenge. | 0:30:27 | 0:30:30 | |
-Number two, -I think it's an excellent thing... | 0:30:33 | 0:30:39 | |
-..to be able to talk to patients -in their own language. | 0:30:39 | 0:30:43 | |
-It's my intention to become fluent -in the near future. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:52 | |
-When I want to relax, -I like to play golf. | 0:30:54 | 0:30:57 | |
-I'm also a keen tennis player. | 0:31:00 | 0:31:02 | |
-I play golf -at St Deiniol Golf Club in Bangor. | 0:31:03 | 0:31:08 | |
-The golf helps me learn -how to swear in Welsh! | 0:31:11 | 0:31:15 | |
-I really enjoy watching television. | 0:31:33 | 0:31:37 | |
-My favourite programme is Cyw -because I can understand it! | 0:31:40 | 0:31:46 | |
-I watch Hwb too, of course! | 0:31:48 | 0:31:50 | |
-See you soon. | 0:31:51 | 0:31:52 | |
-See you soon. - -Thank you. | 0:31:52 | 0:31:53 | |
-I'm Jackie Wilmington. | 0:32:15 | 0:32:17 | |
-I'm a vet. | 0:32:18 | 0:32:19 | |
-I don't work -in an ordinary practice. | 0:32:20 | 0:32:22 | |
-I work in the pathological -veterinary laboratories... | 0:32:23 | 0:32:27 | |
-..on Buarth Road, Aberystwyth. | 0:32:28 | 0:32:30 | |
-I've been interested in farm animals -since I was a young girl. | 0:32:30 | 0:32:36 | |
-I do use my Welsh here, -in the laboratory. | 0:32:41 | 0:32:44 | |
-Most of the local farmers -speak Welsh. | 0:32:44 | 0:32:47 | |
-Very often, when we discuss -technical matters... | 0:32:50 | 0:32:53 | |
-..they're the ones -who use the English words! | 0:32:54 | 0:32:59 | |
-I do the same thing. | 0:33:00 | 0:33:02 | |
-If I can't remember -the correct Welsh word... | 0:33:03 | 0:33:06 | |
-..I'll use the English word. | 0:33:07 | 0:33:09 | |
-They prefer me to do that -than to turn back to English. | 0:33:09 | 0:33:15 | |
-I first started to learn Welsh when -I worked in Ruthin, in the 1980s. | 0:33:18 | 0:33:24 | |
-I only learned a little bit. | 0:33:26 | 0:33:28 | |
-Just enough to socialize, really. | 0:33:31 | 0:33:33 | |
-I took it up again when I moved -to Aberystwyth around 20 years ago. | 0:33:34 | 0:33:40 | |
-I sat the first Gorsedd Y Beirdd -entrance exam last year. | 0:33:45 | 0:33:50 | |
-I intend to sit the second exam -this year. | 0:33:55 | 0:33:57 | |
-If I'm successful, I'll feel as -though I really belong to Wales. | 0:33:59 | 0:34:05 | |
-If I moved to America, I could -become a naturalized citizen... | 0:34:09 | 0:34:13 | |
-..and make it official. | 0:34:14 | 0:34:16 | |
-Unfortunately, -I can't do that in Wales. | 0:34:16 | 0:34:19 | |
-One of the things which -I still find difficult is dialect. | 0:34:22 | 0:34:27 | |
-I also struggle with strong accents. | 0:34:28 | 0:34:31 | |
-Anglesey accents are really tricky. | 0:34:32 | 0:34:35 | |
-I watch and listen to TV programmes -where they use various accents... | 0:34:36 | 0:34:42 | |
-..and I try to work out -what's being said. | 0:34:43 | 0:34:47 | |
-Welsh is quite a difficult language -to learn. | 0:34:52 | 0:34:56 | |
-Of course, everyone grumbles -about the mutations! | 0:34:57 | 0:35:02 | |
-If you want to become fluent, -you've got to keep going. | 0:35:05 | 0:35:09 | |
-Take every opportunity you get -to talk Welsh to fluent speakers... | 0:35:11 | 0:35:17 | |
-..and you'll blossom. | 0:35:18 | 0:35:20 | |
-I'm Hugh Brightwell and I've been -learning Welsh since 2010. | 0:35:36 | 0:35:41 | |
-Today, we're in the garden -of my house in Cheshire. | 0:35:41 | 0:35:45 | |
-I've lived in Cheshire -since I was born... | 0:35:45 | 0:35:49 | |
-..but my mother was born in Rhos, -near Wrexham. | 0:35:51 | 0:35:54 | |
-My mother never spoke Welsh to me... | 0:35:56 | 0:35:58 | |
-..but according to the 1911 census, -my grandmother spoke Welsh. | 0:36:00 | 0:36:04 | |
-She spoke English too. | 0:36:05 | 0:36:06 | |
-My whole family was bilingual. | 0:36:11 | 0:36:13 | |
-I've had an interest in trains -since I was young. | 0:36:21 | 0:36:24 | |
-When I retired, I decided to build -a railway in my garden. | 0:36:26 | 0:36:30 | |
-This is a very Welsh railway! | 0:36:32 | 0:36:35 | |
-There's a lot of slate here -and a little cottage. | 0:36:37 | 0:36:41 | |
-I also have some Welsh trains... | 0:36:41 | 0:36:44 | |
-..especially ones from -the Welshpool And Llanfair Railway. | 0:36:44 | 0:36:49 | |
-It's impossible to run the train -around the track in my garden today. | 0:36:57 | 0:37:02 | |
-There's a lot of work to be done -after the awful weather we've had. | 0:37:03 | 0:37:07 | |
-The rails aren't level -because the soil has moved. | 0:37:08 | 0:37:11 | |
-The sun is shining now and I look -forward to working in the garden... | 0:37:12 | 0:37:17 | |
-..and running my trains -in the sunshine. | 0:37:17 | 0:37:20 | |
-I visit Wales on many weekends -during the year... | 0:37:27 | 0:37:31 | |
-..especially in the summer. | 0:37:31 | 0:37:33 | |
-I wanted to be able to say, -"Good morning! How are you?"... | 0:37:34 | 0:37:38 | |
-..but not in English! | 0:37:39 | 0:37:40 | |
-I can now say, -"Sut mae? Ti'n iawn?" | 0:37:40 | 0:37:43 | |
-It's important for me to go -to classes and do the homework. | 0:37:45 | 0:37:50 | |
-I would also recommend the -Say Something In Welsh website. | 0:37:50 | 0:37:54 | |
-They teach you to say -good afternoon, good night... | 0:37:56 | 0:38:00 | |
-..I want to go, I want to do -and so on. | 0:38:00 | 0:38:02 | |
-I think the combination -of Say Something In Welsh... | 0:38:03 | 0:38:06 | |
-..and ordinary Welsh classes at a -night class or something similar... | 0:38:07 | 0:38:12 | |
-..is the ideal way to learn Welsh. | 0:38:13 | 0:38:15 | |

-He gave his name -to the national day of Wales. | 0:39:08 | 0:39:11 | |

-It's believed St David died -on March 1st around the year 589. | 0:39:15 | 0:39:19 | |
-Why and how did David become famous? | 0:39:20 | 0:39:22 | |
-When he was a young man... | 0:39:23 | 0:39:25 | |
-..David travelled across South Wales -the south of England and Brittany... | 0:39:25 | 0:39:30 | |
-..talking about Jesus Christ. | 0:39:30 | 0:39:33 | |
-Back in Wales, David became -the head of a monastery... | 0:39:34 | 0:39:37 | |
-..in a region called Menevia. | 0:39:38 | 0:39:40 | |
-Everyone at the monastery -lived a simple life... | 0:39:42 | 0:39:45 | |
-..of hard work and prayer. | 0:39:46 | 0:39:48 | |
-David became famous throughout Wales -and beyond. | 0:39:49 | 0:39:53 | |
-David's final message -to his people was... | 0:39:53 | 0:39:56 | |
-.."Rejoice. Keep the faith. -Do the little things." | 0:39:56 | 0:40:00 | |
-Following his death, -many stories grew around David... | 0:40:01 | 0:40:05 | |
-..and he became -the patron saint of Wales. | 0:40:05 | 0:40:08 | |
-When the Normans arrived... | 0:40:10 | 0:40:12 | |
-..they built a cathedral -on the site of the old monastery. | 0:40:12 | 0:40:16 | |
-Over the centuries, St David's -became important to Christians... | 0:40:17 | 0:40:21 | |
-..and thousands of people came here -every year on a pilgrimage. | 0:40:22 | 0:40:26 | |
-Today, pilgrims and tourists still -flock to St David's Cathedral... | 0:40:27 | 0:40:33 | |
-..to commemorate Saint David. | 0:40:33 | 0:40:35 | |
-Let's move on to the 14th century. | 0:40:46 | 0:40:49 | |
-One of the great poets of that time -was a man called Dafydd ap Gwilym. | 0:40:49 | 0:40:54 | |
-Dafydd came from Llanbadarn Fawr, -near Aberystwyth. | 0:40:55 | 0:40:59 | |
-He came from a family -of Welsh gentry. | 0:41:00 | 0:41:03 | |
-We call the poets of this period -the Poets Of The Nobility. | 0:41:03 | 0:41:07 | |
-The poets' main job... | 0:41:07 | 0:41:09 | |
-..was to sing the praises -of the noble families. | 0:41:09 | 0:41:13 | |
-But Dafydd's poetry is different. | 0:41:16 | 0:41:19 | |
-He used themes which were popular -throughout Europe... | 0:41:19 | 0:41:23 | |
-..nature and romantic love. | 0:41:23 | 0:41:25 | |
-Like the European poets, Dafydd used -everyday language in his poetry. | 0:41:27 | 0:41:31 | |
-Dafydd also used a new form or style -of Welsh poetry called the cywydd. | 0:41:32 | 0:41:37 | |
-No one is entirely sure -when Dafydd ap Gwilym died. | 0:41:42 | 0:41:45 | |
-His grave -is at Strata Florida Abbey... | 0:41:46 | 0:41:48 | |
-..and Aled Sam and John Davies -visited the place. | 0:41:49 | 0:41:52 | |
-Strata Florida, -near Pontrhydfendigaid... | 0:41:58 | 0:42:02 | |
-..is a two for -the price of one location. | 0:42:02 | 0:42:05 | |
-An important monastery and the grave -of one of Europe's greatest poets. | 0:42:06 | 0:42:11 | |
-Dafydd ap Gwilym's memorial stone -bears the dates 1320 to 1380... | 0:42:12 | 0:42:18 | |
-..but nobody knows the dates -of his birth or death. | 0:42:18 | 0:42:23 | |
-He died quite young. -He'd lived a naughty life! | 0:42:23 | 0:42:26 | |
-He'd done more mileage -than his age perhaps suggested! | 0:42:26 | 0:42:30 | |
-We go forward now -to the 18th century... | 0:42:51 | 0:42:54 | |
-..the time -when Methodism came to Wales. | 0:42:54 | 0:42:57 | |
-One of the leaders of this period -was a man called Howel Harris. | 0:42:57 | 0:43:02 | |
-Howel was born on Trefeca Farm -near Talgarth. | 0:43:02 | 0:43:05 | |
-When he was young, -Howel was a teacher... | 0:43:06 | 0:43:08 | |
-..but, after hearing -the vicar of Talgarth preaching... | 0:43:09 | 0:43:13 | |
-..Howel decided to leave teaching -and become a Methodist preacher. | 0:43:14 | 0:43:18 | |
-By 1750, Howel had fallen out with -other Methodist leaders in Wales... | 0:43:20 | 0:43:25 | |
-..so he returned to Trefeca to start -a new religious community... | 0:43:27 | 0:43:31 | |
-..called The Trefeca Family. | 0:43:31 | 0:43:34 | |
-On the farm, -they developed new ways of farming. | 0:43:35 | 0:43:39 | |
-Before his death, -he opened a college in Trefeca. | 0:43:39 | 0:43:43 | |
-Trefeca College -is still there today... | 0:43:45 | 0:43:48 | |
-..and in it there's a museum -to remember Howel Harris. | 0:43:48 | 0:43:52 | |
-Aled Sam and John Davies -visited the place. | 0:43:52 | 0:43:55 | |
-A small museum -charts Howel Harris's life story. | 0:43:56 | 0:43:59 | |
-Between his conversion in 1735 and -establishing The Family in 1752... | 0:44:02 | 0:44:07 | |
-..he spent the entire time -on preaching missions. | 0:44:08 | 0:44:12 | |
-He drew a map of his journey. | 0:44:12 | 0:44:15 | |
-Here in the centre -is his home in Trefeca. | 0:44:15 | 0:44:19 | |
-In the north, -he visited Caernarfon and Bangor. | 0:44:19 | 0:44:24 | |
-He went to Llangeitho and Tregaron -in the west. | 0:44:24 | 0:44:27 | |
-In the east was London, -with Swansea and Neath in the south. | 0:44:28 | 0:44:32 | |
-This map is written in English -but he would have preached in Welsh. | 0:44:32 | 0:44:37 | |
-He could preach in Welsh... | 0:44:38 | 0:44:40 | |
-..but I doubt -Welsh was his first language. | 0:44:41 | 0:44:44 | |
-On we go to the 19th century, -to Daniel Owen. | 0:44:52 | 0:44:55 | |
-He was the father -of the Welsh novel. | 0:44:56 | 0:44:58 | |

-Daniel went back -to work in the tailor's shop. | 0:45:36 | 0:45:40 | |
-This is where he began to write... | 0:45:40 | 0:45:42 | |

-Daniel was soon -running his own clothing business. | 0:45:47 | 0:45:50 | |
