Greetings 2 is the second skill (assuming read left to right) of the Welsh language tree. This skill has two lessons, and it teaches the basics of Welsh grammar, as well as a few new words.
Grammar Notes[]
Syntax[]
Welsh generally has a verb-subject-object word order, but at times an emphasized object is placed at the beginning of the sentence. For example: Sioned dw i can only be in that order.
Pronouns[]
Unlike English, Welsh has two words for "you", chi and ti. This is similar to most other modern languages. Only chi is taught in this skill.
Asking a Name[]
In Welsh, one can ask a name by asking "Who are you?" (Pwy dych chi?).
