Present Tense 1 is the third (assuming read left to right) skill in the language tree for Welsh. This skill has four lessons and it teaches the basics of using other verbs in the present tense.

Grammar Notes[]

Verbs other than "to be" require dw i'n... (i + yn = i'n) to be used instead of dw i.... This is the basis of the Welsh present tense.

To negate a statement, insert ddim between the i and yn to make dw i ddim yn...
