"Y pwys"

Translation: The pound

[tombo.wb95]

What kind of pound does this refer to?

[EllisVaughan]

The weight. "Punt" is the word for "pound" as in currency.

[HerrArbo]

This is an example of a word that really should have been taught in a sentence. Teaching "this costs a pound" and "this weighs pound" would have both taught two useful phrases and avoided the confusion that app users can't escape by checking the comments...

[NoelGoetowski]

What about for where naughty dogs go?

[JSD83]

Glad I have learned to check comments because I would have guessed that was an irregular plural form or some such.

I wrote "a pound" because I've learned that in the sentence "They cost 80 pence a pound" you would say ".... y pwys" - but it was marked wrong. Have I missed something or is this just DL inflexibility again?
