Same in Spanish. I'm sure there is a reason...

The UN should airdrop a load of vowels into Wales. And remind them
that y is only ~sometimes~ a vowel... =)

Don't forget that Welsh language and its cousins pre-date "English"!

I like Wales, it's somewhere were we holiday a lot, being less than an
hour's drive away, although my Spanish is far better than my Welsh.

"y" or "yr" is "the" ( and sometimes also "per" )
"a" is "and"
"o" is "of"
"Tywyn" is "Port"

so the Phrase translates literally to School the Port

A funny old language is Welsh. In comparison to English, the word
order usually puts the cart before the horse. And depending upon the
preceding word, the first letter of the following word can change, but
from an early age I could say
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysilio gogogoch - the only
word I know with fours Ls in a row.

I have an utterly unsubstantiated suspicion that my family tree might
have a root or two there. No elders left to pick brains of...

I know I visited with my family when I was quite young; vague memories
of places with names long enough to make even a German gasp for
breath.

I think I remember my dad trying to teach me that word. I managed to
get all the way to the first L.

The only redeeming facor I can see in the Welsh language as far as
learners are concerned is that it is pretty well pronounced
phonetically. The main problem is that a lot of the vowels dont
correspond to their english proninciation. Here is a paragraph
purporting to show how easily English speakers can cope"

Gwd lwc. Ai hop ddat yw can ryd ddys and ddat yt meiks sens tw yw. Iff
yw can ryd ddys, dden yw ar dwing ffaen and wil haf no problems at ol
yn lyrnyng awr ffaen Welsh alffabet.

Hint: it starts "Good luck". The rest is English translitterated to
Welsh.
