ydw. i am drowning :(

[MatthewSke1]

Why do ti and yn not contract as in other sentences (i.e. Wyt ti'n)?

[shwmae]

You don't contract yn when it means "in".

Wyt ti'n canu? (Are you singing?)

Wyt ti yn y bath? (Are you in the bath?)

[Esse-Honorem]

... môr mean both sea and ocean?

[shwmae]

Yes, "cefnfor" means "ocean" but "môr" can mean "sea" or "ocean", especially if you're using American English or in phrases like this (Y Môr Tawel).

[AlexeiNewt]

"if you're using American English"

After all, America has no seas, only oceans.

[shwmae]

Maybe that's why US English uses the word "ocean" more than we do in UK English then.

[AlexeiNewt]

... that was my point :)

[NoelGoetowski]

Our Lakes are pretty Great, though.

[OliverRees6]

Nac ydw

[OliverRees3]

No.

[Zyndell2]

In the US, this would be asking if a person is in the ocean. Does it mean something different outside the US?
