An extremely handy reference guide to common idiomatic Welsh sayings and expressions, concentrating on those which do not translate word-for-word into English.

Examples include: antagonize - tynnu blewyn o drwyn; drop in on - taro heibio; get something off your chest - bwrw dy fol; hopping mad - gwyllt gacwn; settle an argument - torri'r dadl; Thank goodness! - Diolch byth! and What's the matter? - Beth sy'n bod? To help you find the right phrase in Welsh, they are broken down into categories: Emotions; Exclamations; Who?; Where?; When?; Degree; Actions/How?; State/What? By D. Geraint Lewis, author of many popular books for Welsh learners.
