I wrote Ga i oren os gwelwch yn dda? Cei and it said there was a typo in my answer, Gaf instead of Ga, is that correct and if so why Gaf?
What you have written there is fine, and it is one of the alternative answers that should be accepted by Duo. Gaf i is just a common variation of Ga i, and the course accepts both forms.

I didn't ask before but I'm curious: Is "Cei" a version of "Okay?" or something really Welsh?
It's really Welsh -- a form of the verb cael (get, receive, be allowed to).
If several people were asking for oranges, it would have been Gawn ni orennau, plîs? Cewch. -- with a different form since now the answer is "you [plural] may" rather than "you [singular] may."
