Peter is your best bet. He is an authority. However, I thought I'd pass on this recent discovery. Catchphrase, the online Welsh lessons, have now published a book with two CDS that is very good. The one that I have is "Part One". I assume this means I can go even further. The CDs are wonderful for gaining pronunciation, something I thought I'd never get, learning alone as I am. This book is by Basil Davies and Cennard Davies and published by SAIN, Penygroes, Caernarfon, Gwynedd. Perhaps your local bookstore can get it for you. Hazel |
