In Primary school I was taught to say yw fy enw (is my name).I suppose it’s more formal.
It is.
Quite correct though.
I’m not getting formal here.
Or getting into differences in language between north and South Wales.
I thought they spoke Scouse in North Wales

Gave up learning welsh when a local told me ‘dym parcio’ meant free parking. Luckily some kind soul corrected him.
All I learnt from the welsh TV channel is ‘ochi ochi ochi’ and ‘nor sta’. Not got a clue what they really mean. I think ‘nor sta’ means north star. Which you can only see in the evening. Ochi means something to do with darts.
You are spelling it as its pronounced look for a clue in the off topic section.
So good night to you’
I did watch and like the Welsh show Un Bore Mercher in English.
Did watch one ep in the Welsh language and to my surprise kinder was able to follow it slightly.

I think Ty Pawb means a tied contract pub.

Discovered while trying to find someone pronouncing ‘Mae’n Wyntog’ correctly.
A boring bit…‘dd’ is pronounced like ‘th’ in English.
