Gareth King says in Modern Welsh: A Comprehensive Grammar:
Deg has an alternative form deng which generally appears before time-words beginning with m-: deng munud ten minutes, deng mis ten months, deng nmlynedd (NM of blynedd) ten years; and by the same token in the numerals deng mil ten thousand and deng miliwn ten million. Note also deng ⁿniwrnod (NM of diwrnod) ten days, deng milltir ten miles and deng modfedd ten inches. In most other cases, deg o° is the preferred construction – deg o °fapiau ten maps.
(ⁿ and ° indicate mutations.)
