"Dim arnoch chi mae'r bai."

Translation: It's not your fault.

[BruceF.]

Is "bai" pronounced correctly as English "bay" or "buy"?

[Ieuan-Jones]

Shouldn't this be "Nid arnoch chi mae'r bai"?

[ibisc]

Strictly speaking, and in the formal registers, yes, but colloquially dim is fine.

[jennagabriela]

Can you answer here too: "It's not your fault." I have not tried it, but I am curious.

[charro598257]

Yes, my answer was right when I put it that way.

[newrhianno]

I answered' it was not your fault', which I see should be accepted, It was rejected and the correct solution given as 'it has not your fault', which is nonsense. I have reported this, but it's a bit dispiriting.

[ibisc]

.... mae'r bai is in the present tense, so 'it was...' is incorrect as that is in the imperfect tense.

• Nid arnoch chi mae'r bai. - It is not your fault.

There is no entry in the database for this example saying * 'It has not your fault', so I cannot say why Duo would come up with that.

[mizinamo]

Probably automatic uncontraction from "it's", if there is an option in the database with "it's".

[RowenaJane]

Is this the only way if saying 'it's not your fault'? I am thinking particularly in terms of word order.

[rmcode]

Informally you'll also hear 'dim bai ti yw o/e'

[ibisc]

It tends to be an emphatic statement, so in Welsh the dim arnoch chi... is put at the front.
