Grammar Tips:

In Welsh numbers from 1 to 20 are unique and therefore need to be memorized individually. Numbers from 21 and upwards are formed by using the following pattern: for example 21 can be formed by using 20 + 1 (dau ddeg un) while connecting them. 22 = dau ddeg dau. 45 can be formed by using 40 + 5 while connecting them: 45 = pedwar deg pump. 100 = cant; 1000 = mil.
