    Isn't this more of a dydd Gwener sorta thing?

      Pronunciation of the 'dw i'n' is unclear and a bit confusing to understand

        You're right! It shouldn't be stressed as the robot has it. Please report it. :)

        Though I fear they won't be able to do a lot about it!

        I don't think the robot can be adjusted - you can disable listening exercises for a given sentence if the robot is particularly bad at them but you can't help it improve.

        Can't they tune the stops and stresses? It seems to be strange, TTS systems usually have control codes or other means to do it...

        Would it be written differently if one were to say "on Monday I drink beer"?

        I thought the Welsh present tense covered the progressive aspect as well. But "I am drinking beer on Monday" was marked as wrong.
