its not that good actually lol, especially when you can pronounce s=certain things like blue is glas - can pronounce it as glass od 2 = dau - pronounce it as dai as not everyone will know dai is how it sounds.
the wyth one is a another that doesnt look right.

No, sorry didnt mean to say it was useless lol, just to me it looks like someone has taken it a bit too literally in showing pronounciations lol....I am not a welsh speaker but can do the basics ie numbers and greetings etc...
