Gair Cymraeg yr Wythnos | Welsh Word of the Week

Sgwrsio

The Welsh word "sgwrsio" translates to "to chat," "to converse," or "to talk" in English. As a verb noun, it comes from the root noun sgwrs (a conversation), which shares a distant linguistic link to the English word discourse.

One of the best ways to improve your Welsh is through sgwrsio. Whether you're a beginner or a fluent speaker, regular conversation helps build confidence and connects you with other Welsh speakers.

Our weekly "Sgwrsio" sessions restart 9 September 9th. Join us online to practise your Welsh, meet fellow learners from across North America, and enjoy a friendly and supportive environment.
