John K Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 "Heart of Slate" in Welsh please... A written and a phonetic version would be appreciated. Cheers Quote
DerekJ Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Hi John. I don't do the Welsh bit but I'll ask someone who does. Cheers Derek Quote
John K Posted January 26, 2016 Author Posted January 26, 2016 calon llechen Thanks Geoff, I'm guessing to pronounce it, t would be "kalon lehhen" And I might just wait till I get a few more posts - it's obvious I intend to address this to a member of the more fragrant gender (and I don't mean they smell of hot GTX). So I just want to make sure I'm not being set up - like I was with a Russian taxi driver one time, who I apparently asked to bed... Quote
CraigHew Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Listen to your Heart (of Slate) is content.... https://www.google.co.uk/search?site=&source=hp&q=english+welsh+translation&oq=english+welsh&gs_l=hp.1.0.0l10.746.4360.0.7342.14.11.0.3.3.0.202.1286.0j8j1.9.0....0...1c.1.64.hp..2.11.1148.0.SoD6LI4Z5qI Quote

Whisper the answer if you like. Quote

conwyrooster Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Hi John, Been another 1988 crossflow owner i would not set you up !! the translation of Heart of Slate is Calon o Llechan Not sure about Kalon Lehhen you will be ok with the Kalon bit But not Lehhen need to practice your LLLL Quote
John K Posted January 27, 2016 Author Posted January 27, 2016 ... But not Lehhen need to practice your LLLL If you had told me 6 months ago I would fancy a Welsh lady so much I would be teaching myself the language via Google translate and a sports car forum.... Lehhan seems to be pronounced "hrhlayhen" with a soft r at the start. I must be mad to even try this... Quote
mikef Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I'm trying to learn Welsh and this website is very good IMHO: https://www.saysomethingin.com/welsh/course1/intro Quote
