Llafur yn meddiannu iaith y ffasgwyr. Oes ganddyn nhw unrhyw gywilydd a gonestrwydd ar ôl?
The Home Office tweet here - referring to asylum seekers legally here and legally supported by the government as “illegal migrants” - is a deliberate attempt to stir up resentment and racial hatred.
I can’t see how else you describe it.
I can’t see how else you describe it.
The Home Office now describes asylum seekers as "illegal immigrants [living in hotels]" with no reference to the reason that these people are in government-funded accommodation is that this government has taken & will process the asylum claim from them in 98-99% of cases of unauthorised entry.

If you've decided that 2026 is the year when you will become a Welsh speaker, then this is for you:
Don't wait to be confident before you speak.
Speak first, before you know enough Welsh to be confident. That way, there's no pressure to perform, no trying to be perfect.

Un diddorol! Trafaelu yn dod o enw hen arf poenydio.
The English word 'to travel' and French 'travailler' (to work) are notorious false friends.
However, they're real cognates, as they stem from the same word: Old French 'travaillier', which meant "to toil".
This verb had a sinister origin: it came from a word meaning "to torture". Here's more:
