Perhaps the Californian cymriphiles would like to switch to Welsh for their public discussion, or to e-mail for their English discussion. Well-intentioned screeds of English are not the best way to encourage the Welsh language. There are information files at IRLEARN giving details of Welsh language learning resources (and Cornish, and Breton) for those who are interested - send INDEX WELSH-L to LISTSERV@IRLEARN for details. Mae'n rhyfedd i mi fod cymaint o garwyr brwdfrydig o'r Gymraeg yng Nghaliffornia. Does dim llawer o Gymry yn y lle hwnnw, fe gredaf - ond efallai mae'r pobl yng Nghaliffornia yn fwy barod i brofi pethau newydd ac anarferol?
