Broliai Mr a Mrs Dursley, rhif pedwar Privet Drive The first words of J.K. Rowling's timeless classic are familiar to readers the world over as 'Mr and Mrs Dursley, of number four, Privet Drive ...' Learners and lovers of the Welsh language will delight in Emily Huws's sparkling Welsh language translation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone , which perfectly captures the wit and invention of the original, now reissued with stunning new cover art from Jonny Duddle. Review: Iaith ffantastig yw'r Gymraeg! - Reasonably challenging for a learner, using past tense and a range of vocabulary, but as long as you're willing to puzzle your way through with Google Translate to hand, a fantastic choice for dysgwyr of any level. Review: Great book, fun gift - Alas, I cannot comment on the accuracy or otherwise of the Welsh in the book, but I can say that this book arrived on time and in good condition, and that I was very happy with my purchase. I actually bought it for my girlfriend (a serious Potterhead) as a fun gift because she was moving to Wales, and it went down a treat. Would buy from again; would recommend.

Iaith ffantastig yw'r Gymraeg!
Reasonably challenging for a learner, using past tense and a range of vocabulary, but as long as you're willing to puzzle your way through with Google Translate to hand, a fantastic choice for dysgwyr of any level.

Really enjoyable but disappointed with the name changes
Its great to see this classic of the future being translated into Welsh, disappointing this is the only edition done, would be nice to see the life of Harry in the other books also in Welsh, so many young people believe only boring books come in Welsh and so do not bother to continue to use the language outside of school. My only criticism is that the large majority of character names have changed unnecessarily from the English version when it is obvious that these people were never meant to be Welsh. This goes even further when Norbert the dragon comes in, the name and gender are both changed, why??? I do hope the rest of the series are also translated, as a Welsh language learner I really enjoy practicing by reading books I enjoyed in English

失敗購入です。
英語の学習にと、人気のハリポタの英語版を購入したつもりが、ウェールズ語？版でした。そんな違いがあったことも知らず、商品が届いてみて、唖然でしたが、一つ勉強させていただきました。
