Today I remembered that in Welsh the expression "Get well soon" is "Brysia wella", imperative mood, and it literally means "Hurry, get better."

Like...I wish I could control the speed of my recovery, but anyway diolch (= thanks).

(Love the Welsh language btw. Five years together and I'll never stop loving it).

057 Austin J40 (production line) (1950-71) by Robert Knight Via Flickr: Austin J40 Pedal Car (1950-71) Production 32,098 AUSTIN SET www.flickr.com/photos/45676495@N05/sets/72157623759808208... Produced by the Austin Motor Company the J40 was built to resemble the Austin A40. Built at the Austin Junior Car Factory in a purpose built factory in Bargoed, South Wales by disabled Welsh miners under the supervision of a Doctor and experienced rehabilitation officers. As such the factory gave gainful employment to 250 disabled men, on a not for profit bassis. The J40 was the second model made in Bargoed following the Pathfinder Special based on a racing Austin7 which was only in production during the factories first year. The cars were made from off cuts from the Austin factory in Longbridge Birmingham and were built and painted the same way as the full size car. The car featured working head lights and horn, detachable wheels and Dunlop pneumatic tyres, leather seats and a realistic dash. With opening boot and bonnet chrome bumpers, boot handle, hub caps and (until they were deemed unsafe) chrome bonnet flying A insignia The car were expensive selling for £27 plus £6 purchase tax which would have equated to two weeks wages for an average working man. In good condition they could now sell for £1500 - £2000, but very popular, and were sold via Austin Motors, showrooms Production ceased in 1971 after a total of 32,098 had been made and the factory made engine parts, finally closing in 1999 Diolch am 99,579,819 o olygiadau gwych, mae pob un ohonynt yn cael eu gwerthfawrogi'n fawr.

Welsh people and Welsh language learners of Tumblr, I need your help.

Can anybody recommend some Welsh or Welsh language dubbed shows to watch for someone who is learning Welsh, but doesn’t have the money to pay for app subscriptions or private lessons? I’ve been using Duolingo for nearly 2 years, and Drops for a few months, (and before that I used Memrise for over a year too), and I want to put my learning into practice by watching something in Welsh, but I have no idea what’s good or where to stream Welsh shows with subtitles.

Are there any super famous English language shows that have been dubbed in Welsh that I might be familiar with in English, so it would be easier to follow in Welsh? There’s got to be something that I’m familiar with, surely. I’d take SpongeBob SquarePants if that exists and somebody can find a link to watch it. But something interesting, and easy to follow would be great. Bonus points if it’s animated and/or queer.

(I’d also be interested in a Welsh Big Brother or Welsh dating shows if they exist. Or reality garbage like The Circle and that sort of thing. I don’t really care if it’s trashy as long as it has people speaking Welsh how they would in real conversation instead of how stilted it can be on Duolingo and such apps.)

Really any suggestions would be more than welcome! Diolch! 🌷
