"What is Dewi Lingo like?"

Translation: Sut un ydy Dewi Lingo?

[Kalessan]

Shouldn't "Sut un yw Dewi Lingo" be "How is Dewi Lingo"? I would have thought "What" would be "beth"?

[EllisVaughan]

No, this is a specific phrase that we use in Welsh that you do not translate directly. I guess you could say "Beth ydy Dewi Lingo fel" but it sounds really bad to the ear. EDIT: Just looked at this again after one year and I wanna get rid of the last sentence, you'd never use "Beth" in this sort of sentence.

[hnigro]

when do you use "yw" vs. "ydy"? There was a sentence earlier that was "Sut un yw" somthing or other, but in this one it's "Sut un ydy"

[Julianbark6]

There's no difference. It's a matter of local dialect or personal preference.

I'm confused, is Dewi Lingo actually Duo Lingo? If so, why doesn't it translate to Duo Lingo?
