    Just pulling your leg Matthew.

    I work with quite a few Welsh speakers and find it amusing when they're chatting away in Welsh and 1 or 2 words in every sentence are English.

    Matth, I'm not quite sure how to tell you this, but that don't look much like Welsh to me <whistle>

    I actually used to know a few words, really basic stuff for example i know Ty is house.

    I like the way the Welsh provide you with a short language primer on their road signs.
    I learnt the following highly useful phrases in my 5 years living there:
    Dim Parcio
    Dim ridio bike
    For those of you who are not fluent like me these mean
    No Parking
    No bike riding

    Fortunately I had already left by the time these unfortunate incidents occurred:
    https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www....-leaves-welsh-speakers-bewildered-2321082.amp

    But my favourite of all is this one:
    'Lack of respect'
    It is the latest in a long line of translation blunders in Welsh.

    Examples include a sign erected in Swansea that was supposed to read: "No entry for heavy goods vehicles. Residential site only".

    Instead, the message read: "I'm not in the office at the moment. Send any work to be translated".
