Welsh is a (largely) phonetic language, so Llanelli does not really belong in this list.
Any Welsh speaker would agree that English pronunciations can be bizarre.
Luckily, once you know the alphabet in Welsh, you can say anything.

Not again! I am starting to develop a persecution complex on behalf of the entire Welsh nation.
This is simply not acceptable.

Cross over the border here into Wales and that fingermai' is long gone.
Labour is the embodiment of cynical entitlement. They truly believe that they have a divine right to govern here.
They are in for a big surprise tomorrow. #plaid

Debatable. In Wales we see him as a Dic Siôn Dafydd. A Welshman who shows animosity to our language and any sense of nationhood.
His son is carrying on the tradition in a safe Labour seat where life gets worse for most people on all counts.
Not pretty.

Not just the artwork. Welsh is an official language here so it will also need to be bilingual.

She should be subject to a leadership challenge now, but who else wants this very poisoned chalice?
